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?

To get your teeth aligned you have to make space in your jaw. To create that space you may have to remove teeth. So their is no need to get scared and do as your dentist said.
