I know I have a cross bite and the dentist said he wanted to extract 4 teeth before my braces because it would be convenient but I’m only getting 1 extracted now after I did some research which is that upper canine malocclusion.
Idk what I do after, should I get surgery for my maxilla or maybe a herbst appliance not too sure

Yeah I’m on the ropes about it, I talked to him about correcting my bite with surgery and he said I’d probably need just a maxillary advancement since my mandible projection is fine so I mean maybe I’ll just get surgery after the braces
