Dentist Visits




We make trips about every 2 weeks over to Tequisquiapan (45 minutes) to visit our dentist. Janelle has had braces for a year now, and should be pretty much done by June. The dentist was showing me the before and after pictures last week....she is pretty pleased with the changes so far.

Taylor was supposed to have a retainer from about last September, but the first couple would last a couple of weeks and then break. Well, they didn't just break, but he seems to have chewed on them during the night and would break off the wires that held them in. Since we were gone in November and December, we didn't get a new one. Last week the dentist put in a retainer, but not one that is removable. We are hoping that there won't be any problems with this one, and it will do the job it is designed for...stretching out Taylor's mouth so that he can have surgery later this year or sometime next year. He still needs a bone graft to attach his front teeth to the rest of his teeth.
