If you have lots of crowding between your teeth, taking teeth our would help. Extraction teeth may also help with your lip position if your teeth or lips are sticking forward. it hard to say...it depends on your teeth condition and your lips positions, and also which teeth are removed.

it wont change the shape of your face...your face has muscle in it that supports the shape. I've had 4 teeth pulled and I also have braces. It doesn't really hurt if they numb you enough and the pain afterwords really only lasts for the rest of the day...sometimes not even. Don't be scard...If you hate the dentist I understand but if it hurts while their doing the procedure let them know so they can numb you more :)

having 2 teeth pulled will not effect the shape of your mandible or maxilla. Only if you lost all of your teeth would things look different because your lips would lose the majority of their support.
When I had my wisdom teeth pulled it was about 36 hours of pretty rough pain which subsided over the next 48. They give you painkillers but they've never worked properly with me.

Yes it could change your face a bit especially if you are going to keep up this trend of pulling out teeth. you might have noticed that people wearing dentures have thier cheeks going inside when they remove thier denture. teeth supports your face or cheeks to stay in place.
but hey two teeth does not make much difference.. for now

No..It doesn't change the way your face looks, at least it didn't change my brothers he got two teeth pulled near the back, and he was complaining for around a week or so..

in case you're taking steps to replace the lost tooth you may have much less bone much less bone loss and much less facial transformations. Partial, implant, bridge, something. considering which you're youthful it won't as we talk start up showing, yet after 3-5 years if the area isn't replaced it could start to tutor. superb to replace it after 8 weeks of healing or as we talk following extraction for implants.

I lost 2 molars to an accident, car hit me. asside from more scars on my already scarred face, it didn't affect my face as far as how thin it looked, I just got a bit uglier.
