What options are there to treat severe tooth overcrowding?

Q.
Hello, i have a problem of overcrwoding in my lower teeth more than 6cm as described by my doc. and he said in oredr to fix that he will have to remove one of my cebtral incisors as removing a crwon will cause my mouth to be empty because i have a small mouth. and after he does that, he will have to instill a fixed wire behind my lower teeth so as the symmerty of my teeth is not lost. i am worried about the complications of the fixed wire as it may cause dental caries and accumulation of plaque. so i need your adives regarding other possible options and your opinion on the fixed wire. thank you.

In cases with severe crowding often a tooth is removed to create space to straighten the remaining teeth. Dental treatment involves some risk but if you maintain good hygiene that risk is diminished.  If you are concerned about the treatment get a second opinion with another dentist.  Dr. Lemongello
