What should I do about my teeth?

I am getting braces soon and the orthodontist said I need to get my 4 molars pulled so when my wisdom teeth come in they won't eventually make my teeth crooked again. If I get these 4 teeth pulled, I will eventually have to get my wisdom teeth done as well, however if I dont get the 4 molars pulled I will have to get my wisdom teeth cut out which I think would hurt more. So in conclusion, should I get 4 cut out and not worry about my molars, or should I get my molars pulled and then my wisdom teeth cut out as they later come in. (I am only 14 and I need help on this choice.) Thanks.

I got the four molars out but then ended up having my wisdom teeth out anyway! I thought the whole point of me getting the molars out was to avoid that, but it didn't work out that way.

Get the teeth pulled now. I did...and my wisdom teeth came in perfectly and did not have to be pulled at all.

Personally, I would rather go through the temporary pain of taking out wisdom teeth so I could keep the molars. Plus they give you nifty drugs to help with the pain.

I haven't had braces but I did have all four wisdom teeth cut out because they were causing me pain. I suggest not having the molars taken out mainly because if your wisdom teeth cause you discomfort you can just have them out at a later date, if they do indeed come through. not everyones do. if your mum or dads didnt chances are yours wont either. However your orthodontist does know what he's talking about and he is a professional.
