Braces

Vera, by this point, has had a lot of dental work done. She had a palate spreader, head gear, and retainer. The mold on the left is how her teeth started, the mold on the right is where they are today. The last step is happening...braces! Having never had them, I am failing miserably at being a supportive parent. As Jason like to claim, I just don't get it. There is no envy on my part. 

18-months to 2-years! As I am writing this, she has been wearing them for a month or so. Other than a the inside of her cheeks being sore, she has adjusted really well. For her, the palate spreader was much more traumatic.
