This question is for dentists: dear sirs/madams, 9 year old child has completely crooked front right incisor (it came out perpendicular) the surgery was performed to remove the mesioden tooth that was above it that caused this, also there was a milk tooth that was also removed during the surgery. Could you please suggest what should be done now, child seems to be depressed looking at it this way. We will have a dentist appointment soon but want to get various opinions so that we know few options before we get to see the dentist. Thanks and best regards.

Hello, its difficult to provide opinion based on insufficient clinical findings. Though in general crooked teeth and malocclusion can be corrected by orthodontic treatment. Wish and hope the best for your child. Warm regards.

Hello Lybrate user. The crooked teeth either can be corrected or has to be removed in case if it's present lingualy or palataly. The mesiodens are supernumerary teeth which has to be extracted. The milk teeth, which is removed, the permanent teeth will erupt there soon. I advice you to take an orthopantamogram and check the eruption of permanent teeth. Either the teeth are normal or impacted or delayed eruption. In the space formed, try to place space maintainer appliance. Consult me for further details. Thank you.
