What to do with tooth impact?!
Question: What to do with tooth impact?
Ever since last year, a baby tooth has been causing bad problems to the permanent tooth growing as its replacement. The permanent tooth aimed forward a little too much and as a result, the baby tooth has pushed it forward and out to the side. I really don't want to get braces, my parents are financially stressing the way they are, and adding something else to worry about may bring unpleasant changes. Any ideas?

SEE A DENTIST FOR THIS EXTRACTION
You need to see a dentist and have the baby tooth pulled. The adult teeth are supposed to come up under the baby teeth and essentially the roots of the baby tooth are disintegrated and then the baby tooth is loose enough to be pulled out by you. Sometimes this doesn't happen and the baby tooth will still have its roots and that is why you need to have a dentist pull it out.
Had a son with same problem.
