The treatment for crowded teeth is extraction of some teeth (if needed) and orthodontic treatment. The baby tooth is extracted once the permanent tooth below it is about to erupt. All this can be decided only if an xray of the jaw is taken and the status of permanent teeth determined. Kindly mention as to which tooth exactly is the baby tooth. My advise would be to initiate orthodontic treatment at the earliest.
