Consultant Specialist Orthodontist with over 25 years' experience
An 11 year old girl with severe crowding affecting her confidence. She also has two missing lower second premolar teeth. No teeth were removed in the upper arch and crowding was reduced by rapid maxillary expansion. Orthodontic treatment with upper and lower fixed braces was carried out over a 24 months duration to correct the bite and teeth. She was delighted with her smile and was always beaming in photographs now.
