The teeth in my lower jaw are not properly aligned. I wanted to go for braces but when I consulted a dentist, he told me that I will have to get some of my teeth removed. I am a little confused and scared after that. Are there any other alternatives to get my teeth aligned or will I have to get my teeth removed?
