Braces

I took Jason and Anne to have a consultation at the orthodontist while they were off track.  I really didn't think any of the kids would need any work done until they were a little bit older.  The orthodontist checked out Jason and said he would need braces but, not until all his baby teeth had fallen out.  Anne on the other hand he had a different plan.  She is going to have some crowding once her grown teeth grow in so, he thought the best route would be to bring her front 4 teeth together to make room for her other teeth to come in.  This would then make it so none of her teeth would need to be pulled.  So, my little girl Anne has braces just on her top 4 teeth.  She will have them on for 6 months and then when all her baby teeth have fallen out they will start her 2nd round of Braces.  She will only have to have her 2nd round on for a year.  She was really excited about getting her braces and she chose blue bands to match her Halloween costume.  She looks so cute in her Braces!  So, we have started the never ending process of having one of our kids in braces for the next couple of years.
