i had braces with Dr. Thodas for 2 years. I had a minor crowding. She suggested that I needed 1 tooth removed. after, I had my teeth extracted, she told me that I need 3 more teeth removed. At first , I was so worried because that's not what I wanted. at that time I din't have any information about the negative effects that teeth extraction caused over time. I ended up with sunken and sagging cheeks. Now I'm so mad with Dr. thodas because she never told me that this could happen to my face. I don't recommend this ortho because if she was a good and nice doctor, she should have told me the true. Never ever let any orthodontist extract good permanent teeth. It will ruin your life.
