Hi doctor,
I have been wearing braces on my upper teeth for two years to fix the gap due to the extraction of an extra teeth between my incisors. Now I have noticed that my upper teeth are slightly protruding and I cannot close my mouth. Now, my orthodontist is asking me to get braces on lower teeth, but my lower teeth are perfectly straight. I consulted another orthodontist, and he said that lower braces are not needed, only front four teeth are required to be fixed. I am confused. What should I do?
