When there is a discrepancy in the length of the tooth arch, for example, when the teeth are aligned side by side, if the total size is larger than the arch size, the teeth begin to come out in a crooked way to find a place for themselves. If the canine teeth of children come out too high or close to the palate, we can understand that they have arch stenosis. If a doctor is consulted at an early age, we can expand the bone structure by using summary apparatus when working with an orthodontist, prosthodontist and pediatric dentist. Thus, all of our patient’s teeth can find a place to come out. In advanced ages, we remove 2 or 4 teeth of our patient and make room for other teeth.
