[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm very mistrustful of orthodontists. One highly regarded one was pushing phase 1 treatment, and I went for a second opinion who said he didn't need phase 1 and may not even need phase 2. We are not looking for perfect teeth for our child with ASD - just to treat any necessary bite issues. Make sure that the provider is looking at the whole child.[/quote] I am also distrustful of orthodontists who recommend a palate expander for all their patients. My understanding is that it's need for only certain conditions such as a crossbite. [/quote]
