Sean Goes to the Orthodontist
July 18, 2005 on 7:19 pm | In Main |We had our initial consultation for Sean with the orthodontist this morning. The orthodontist agreed we would need an appliance to fix his cross bite, but we do not need to do anything right away. More than likely, we will have this procedure done 1 or 2 years from now.
The cross bite is where Sean’s upper jaw is too narrow for the upper teeth to fit over his lower teeth, so his upper jaw moves over to the side so that Sean can close his teeth together. The appliance will spread his upper jaw apart. This isn’t a big deal because the bones in his palate are not fused together yet.
In other news, the hard drive on my work laptop crashed, so after the IT guy took it away, I came home early. Since I had some extra time, I barbecued burgers for everybody. We finished the evening with a nice swim in the pool.
