AARRGGHHH
Today I had to take Kidling M for her orthodontist evaluation. It has been a forgone conclusion that she was going to need braces and that we were going to have to have a couple of teeth extracted. The appointment was scheduled for the traditional 45 minute consultation complete with a panoramic xray of her mouth. 2 1/2 hours later, and three panoramic xrays later, we finally get to leave.
The first xray set taken the bimbo developing *forgot to turn off the light in the developing room*! The second set taken the bimbo didn't align correctly so they only got 3/4ths of her teeth in the film. The third set was taken by the lead rad tech who got them done correctly which then reveled Kidling M not only didn't lose 2 of her deciduous teeth (which we knew and were ready to have extraced prior to braces being applied) but she has one permanent tooth impacted in her hard palate. Well boys and girls, can you say "expensive trip to an oral surgeon"? So we have to see the oral surgeon first, get the teeth extracted and the impacted tooth exposed (since its an adult tooth the orthodontist wants to move it into proper placement instead of extracting it), THEN we get to have the braces placed and she is looking at 2-3 years to get all the teeth in proper alignment.
Anyone located a money tree in their backyard yet? Can I get a cutting from it to put in my backyard? Please?
