[quote=Anonymous]How do we even do this? DD is 9 and has an ADHD/ADS dx and sensory issues. She hates a regular teeth cleaning, it's taken years to deal with hair washing, a seam on a sock makes her freak out....you get the picture. She was born with a cleft palate (repaired at 10 months) and medically needs a palate expander. The orthodontist is great, says we should do it in the next year and could a regular one or a removable one (removable seems worse to me since she will just take it out). But I can't imagine her having something in her mouth, turning the key etc. Has anyone dealt with this, have good advice?[/quote]
