[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The hygienist forgot you said no and your kid authorized the work. Forget about that.

I question what a shortened tooth root is and why braces make that a problem.

In general, if you trust the provider, don't delay dental work.[/quote]
I don’t think she forgot, I was very very adamant about saying no last time.  
As best i understand it, tooth roots can become shorter during orthodontic treatment and that is very common.  Sometimes it causes problems and sometimes it doesn’t. [/quote]

In no way would I expect a hygienist to remember something I said 3 months ago. If you want to go against standard guidelines you need to state that each and every time. They don’t have a way to set a reminder to ask you “in a few years.” They have a professional duty to offer the recommended screenings and services.

The irony is there are many dentists out there who will do way worse in terms of pushing unnecessary procedures. So if you leave this practice, beware.[/quote]

This last bit is so true. There is a new dentists practice appearing every week it seems where I live and I hear so many stories of them pushing expensive unnecessary treatments. [/quote]
