Hi
it's a myth that the eyes get week if a tooth is removed.
You and your parents must understand that in order to make space for the tooth to go back the doctor must have advise removal of two teeth in each jam. It if recommend for most of the patients undergoing braces who don't have adequate space for the tooth to be taken back.

Hey there, these elastic bands/ chains can hurt and as you can not clean teeth properly so the gums are affected, so maintain a good oral hygiene. Use a mouth wash as directed. These can not be cleaned by self so do not worry of yellowing of the chains. They are to be changed by dentist only.
Kindly leave review.
Use my doctor code gm2c5d for any query.

Advantage is superb esthetics, and no one will come to know why do you start looking prettier day by day.
Disadvantage of lingual braces is little bit discomfort in initial days.
Cost varies from 75000 to 2 lac or more, as it depends upon the complexity of the condition.
