Does Dr. Fine require tooth extractions for severe crowding cases using FineLine®?

Rarely; Dr. Fine prioritizes non-extraction therapy by utilizing expansion and the precise interproximal reduction (IPR) capabilities of the FineLine® system. Extractions are generally reserved for cases with severe protrusion or profile concerns where keeping all teeth would compromise periodontal health. We utilize 3D facial modeling to predict how keeping vs. removing teeth will affect the patient’s long-term facial profile.
