The extraction of healthy teeth for orthodontic treatment does not necessarily age the face, but can alter facial profile depending on individual cases. Orthodontist Sorana Tecuceanu explains that while some patients may benefit from extractions, others may experience accentuated aesthetic issues if they already have a recessed profile. Treatment plans must consider the entire dental structure and facial profile, and alternatives to extractions exist. Patients should understand the implications of their treatment options, as refusing necessary extractions can lead to future dental problems. Orthodontic treatment is also possible for adults over 60, provided their dental health allows it.
