Molars are the main tooth by which you eat. So if you will remove your second molars you will have difficulty in eating and if you r planning for braces then your dentist will remove your premolar not molar and load of braces will be withstand by your molars only. So I suggest you can go for implants for replacement of 2nd molars and it will not effect your braces treatmwnt as well. As if you dealyed implants after your braces your upper molar can have extrusion and cause loosening of your teeth. And your acne problem is beacuse of your pcods it may increase your skin problems. But not your tooth problems. U urself mentioned that you are in depression. And it is one of the problem realted with pcods. Due to which your start consuming a lot of refined sugar and may have increase your problem of your tooth decay. So I woild also suggest that along with your tooth problem you should also be concerned about your pcod and once your pcod is controlled your most of the problems will go away. Including it depression.
