3 Orthodontics; 3 Different Recommendations; Who To Believe?

By Orthodontics Editor, on January 17th, 2010

1st one (just got out of school) said to pull 2 upper pre-molars; 2nd one (years of exp.) said to pull 2 upper and 2 lower pre-molars; third one said extraction likely but couldn’t make a diagnosis until seeing all the x-rays, impressions and photos (wanted to make sure no jaw problems too). The 3rd one also pointed out my grinding problem.
I have over an overbite with 2 bunny teeth on top; Lower teeth are also crowded and sort contours upward in the middle forming a “ridge” with recession (from brushing too hard?). Am I a difficult case?
(This is a followup of my last question.)

Husband And I Want To Build A House! How Much Will It Cost?

By Orthodontics Editor, on January 2nd, 2010

Okay we found a nice location for sale and we want to build our first home on it! My husband recently finished orthodontics school but worked as a dentist while he was in orthodontics school so we have some money saved up and would like to build a nice little home for us and our brand new baby! We are currently living in an apartment. Here’s what we’d like our house to be like…
1 story. 3 bedrooms. 2 bathrooms. Kitchen. Dining area. Family room and a small porch out back.
We are thinking of making it out of brick.
I would LOVE for it to be made out of stone and wood but I’m thinking that would make it cost a lot more am I right? And if so how much more?
We arent plannning on have a living room, is that a buy idea and will it make it harder to sell?
I’m just wondering what you would estimate a house like this costing? Thanks for you answers!

Orthodontics may be the specialty of dentistry that's concerned using the study and treatment of malocclusion (improper bites), which may be a result of tooth irregularity, disproportionate jaw relationships, or both. Orthodontic therapy can focus on dental displacement only, or can deal using the control and modification of facial growth. In the latter case it is better defined as "dentofacial orthopedics". Orthodontic therapy can be carried out for purely aesthetic reasons with regards to improving the general appearance of patients' teeth. Nevertheless, you will find orthodontists who work on reconstructing the whole face rather than focusing exclusively on teeth. Therapy is also frequently prescribed for practical reasons for example providing the patient having a functionally improved bite (occlusion).
