im 13 and need treatement for my small jaw, ive had this plate (thing that stretches your jaw) for 12 months, its only supposed to take 6 to 8, but for some reason i cant seem to tolerate keeping it in, the only other option is to have 4 teeth pulled.
whats the effects of having teeth pulled or should i just start over with the plate

thnx - Josh

What is it for? -Wisdome teeth, or somethin' else? Either way, I think I'd suggest getting them pulled. If the plate didn't work the first time, what's the use in trying it again. With the exception of getting wisdom teeth pulled, it's not all that painful. Good luck, Josh! Later!

problem is jaw is too small (teeth wont fit) but yeah its just been draggin on and on and its not that it dont work its just a pain in the a** to wear, u have to take it out to eat, stinks like shit from the saliva (yes i do wash it but it gives ur breath a bad smell) and it impairs your speech
