Will a dentist...?

remove teeth? or is that an orthodontist only??


Im asking cuz 2 of my teeth idnt get to come out cuz there wasnt enough space so it asnt broken through the gum yet but u can totally tell they r teeth.

Answer:
yes a dentist will remove your teeth. even a orthodontist will. an orthodontist is specialised in further surgical treatments.
Orthodontists as a general rule do not extract teeth. They refer patients back to their regular dentist or an oral surgeon to have teeth removed.

You didn't mention how old you are, and whether you still have baby teeth. You can consult with your regular dentist or get a referral to an orthodontist to see if the teeth you are worried about need to be removed. If so, the dentist or orthodontist can best decide who should do the extractions.
