Lindsee is missing a total of 7 that is right SEVEN teeth that includes wisdom teeth.When she was in 3rd grade she got her first set of braces, they were on for a short period of time, just to start the LONG process.Then in 5th grade she got set #2. They had to create space for teeth implants. Well she got that set of in 7th grade and we were told by the orthodontist that we did not need to worry about seeing the specialist until she was 17 or 18 because they would not do implants on kids until they were between the ages of 18-21.
Well last week my gut told me to go see the specialist, and I am glad I did because her teeth have moved even though she was been 100% faithful about wearing her retainer. Well to tell you the truth it is not the space between her teeth that has moves it is more the roots have shifted and there is not enough space for the implants.
SO round #3 of braces starts Wednesday. This time around she should only have to be in them for 4-6 months and once her teeth are where they need to be she will get the implants that way her teeth will not move!
I think $7000 on 3 sets of braces is a lot, but the fact that my daughter will not we ashamed to smile will be priceless!!!
