home : orthodontics : patient examplesHere are some examples of our orthodontic work. You can click on any photo to see a larger version.alexAlex had been told surgery was required because of his “total reverse crossbite” – his lower teeth were completely inside his upper teeth and just didn’t meet at all.
We developed Alex's jaws with crozat wire appliances then aligned his jaws with twin-block appliances and finally straightened his teeth with braces.
liamWhen Liam first came to us, he had very narrow jaws and extremely crowded front teeth. This treatment took less than 2 years to achieve - Liam was a great patient!
We opened up Liam's jaws with a series of removable appliances [plates] and, when there was enough room, we straightened his teeth with braces.
michaelMichael fell off his bike when he was very young and damaged his teeth. So his front teeth were growing into the roof of his mouth.
We widened Michael's jaws with Schwarz plates, pushed two teeth forward with finger spring appliances, and used braces to bring the teeth into line. Later we removed his second molar teeth to allow his wisdom teeth to erupt into his mouth.
It was snowing hard when we drove into Los Alamos. There was a clinical feeling to the town as if every man, woman, and child was a doctor. We shopped at the Safeway and got a bag of groceries. A toddler looked like a brain surgeon. He carefully watched us shop at the exact place where he would make his first incision - Richard Brautigan |
