Tiger teeth are also what we call fangs. If they are permanent teeth, they must not be pulled out after they erupt. The position of tiger teeth is also different at different times. If the teeth are crowded, the position of tiger teeth is higher, or inclined or twisted, we also need to make comprehensive judgment according to the arrangement of the whole mouth teeth and the occlusion relationship of the upper and lower jaw teeth. Before orthodontic treatment, we need to take various films to evaluate the position of the local teeth and bone. The general doctor does not need to pull out the teeth. The most common position for orthodontic extraction is the first bicuspid, that is, four. After the first bicuspid is pulled out, the orthodontic treatment is designed according to the crowding of the teeth in the mouth and the unevenness of the teeth. Therefore, regardless of the position of the canine teeth or high or low or torsion, and can not solve the canine torsion, and pull out the tooth. Therefore, the specific situation should be based on the patient's teeth arrangement and bite degree, by a professional dentist to make a comprehensive judgment, and give a suitable orthodontic plan.
