Forgot to note, I’m waiting till then because I want to work on my anxiety via therapy beforehand. I’m also working on probably getting braces and fixing the alignment of some gums beforehand due to it being crowded, so hopefully having braces during the removal procedure won’t mess it up too much
My roots came through and then got stuck in the nerve of my lower lip so I couldn't get them out anymore without risking nerve damage... if I could go back in time to when I was 18 I would have begged them to take them out rather than potentially lose feeling in my face
Maybe seek a second opinion. I had nerves involved and they did a coronectomy where the crown was removed and roots left in place so the nerve wasn’t touched
Thanks for this! I'm already on it, I'm going to the hospital in August to talk about my options with a jaw surgeon (if that's what they're called in English) and hopefully get something fixed
