[quote=Anonymous]Palate expander starting around age 7 or 8 for the same reasons. Then there was a break of a couple of years until all adult teeth came in, at which point braces started. The doctor wanted to do the palate expansion early because it's less painful. For my daughter, she has been followed by an orthodontist since she was 6 - she has missing teeth. It was helpful because the orthodontist identified a problem that, because it was discovered early, was really easy to treat. It would not have been easy to treat had we waited. I was not billed for any of those orthodontic services. I will pay a flat fee for braces when the time comes. [/quote]
