[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Generally if you start earlier and do the two phases, it’s less painful and typically requires fewer interventions like removing teeth. My kids’ experience has been much better than mine in the 90s when everyone was waiting until adult teeth were in. [/quote]

OP here.  My DH and I both had multiple teeth pulled as a child before braces.  The orthodonist told us phase one was to avoid that.  DD does have fairly large teeth, like I do. Still I don't understand doing all of that work and spending all of that money to end up with crooked teeth at 14.  Oh well, hindsight is 20/20[/quote]

So you would prefer that she had more extractions and more pain? Weird. [/quote]

No no of course not. I was just trying to make myself feel better by saying “oh yeah maybe it was that because she has big teeth like us maybe she would have needed extractions otherwise.”  But the ortho never told us that or that she may need round 2.[/quote]
