[quote=Anonymous]DD was missing adult teeth. We had her followed by an orthodontist from around age 6. They discovered a tooth growing sideways due to the missing adult teeth and were able to recommend an extraction that eliminated the risk of serious problems and painful treatment. Orthodontia included making space for the missing teeth which could be replaced by bridges or implants. Implants can not be done until the jaw stops growing so that is an adult decision. We used retainers that held the space for awhile and then did bridges because wearing retainers forever is kind of a pain. Orthodontist only charged us for the flat fee for braces. Bridges were expensive and first set failed but they didn’t bill us for the failed set. So biggest issue was time. [/quote]
