[quote=Anonymous]I have a "serial extractor" who needed 6 baby teeth pulled and will need two adult teeth pulled. We have only down two at a time. He has already had an expander and phase I done twice. My pediatric dentist laughed when I showed up with the plan to extract 6 teeth. He agreed that two needed to come out but would not, under any circumstance, pull 6 baby teeth on an 8 year old. We did the two teeth, went to another ortho did expander then phase 1. A few month later we rechecked and decided to use retainer for a few months. After that plans changed and we redid phase 1. He is now 11, had multiple spacers and won't even need braces for at least a year. Still dealing with the adult teeth removal (genetically missing teeth) but he definitely didn't need those 4 other baby teeth removed. [/quote]
