[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. My daughter had this done about a year before she got her braces on (age 12 or so). Both the periodontist and the orthodontist recommended that timing. Her teeth were actually pretty nice, with just a little gap between her front teeth. The braces and procedure were recommended for oral and gum health decades from now; issues I couldn't even see associated with her bite. She got the procedure, which I believe was covered by Metlife, most of it anyway. Then she got her braces on for two years. Just took them off and her teeth are fantastic, so much nicer than I thought possible. Her bite is great, which is really the point. I would do it the way the specialists are recommending. We went to Silver Spring Periodontics-- they were extremely kind and the oral surgeon has kids and was very good with my daughter who was terrified. Good luck! [/quote] Thanks for the reassurance![/quote]
