This is definately very new to me. My 11 year old has very bad problems and
will be getting an "appliance" to widen her roof and have some teeth
extracted and then braces. It is worse than I had expected, as there are two
teeth still up in her gum in the front of her mouth and no space for them to
come down into, and what's down already is all jumbled up! I didn't know
about the two teeth until the ortho consult today. And then, my husband's
place of employment changed dental/vision insurance and the new dental
doesn't cover orthodontics!
And last night my "baby" lost her first tooth :) She worked on that thing
for 3 days.
