Interestingly, her orthodontist said she may need some teeth extracting - just like her old mum did. I have six teeth on each side which isn't a huge amount.
I remember having a brace. It was a nasty plastic thing which stuck in the roof of my mouth and kept the molars straight - not that I remember a lot about my teeth at the time though. Other than they'll have been wonky.
The teen's teeth definitely need help and they're getting it now which is good.
The total treatment time is two years.
