ok You can see it barely showing.
It's 8 o'clock in the morning.
I know.
Music
Good morning!
So glad you are with us today.
If you are new make sure you comment because I would love to chat with you.
Usually I drive to work by myself but today I have someone special in my car.
Let's see who it is.
Sunshine!
Good morning.
Why are you in the car going to work?
I am going to my orthodontist appointment but first we have to go to my mom's work and
wait till it's time to go to my orthodontist appointment.
That is true.
So we are going to the orthodontist today.
What do you think is going to happen?
I don't know.
We will see if it is time.
So what did he say last time?
Last time it wasn't time for braces yet and to see you in six months.
We have gone since you were eight so you have gone what 3 times?
Every time he says not yet.
I hope he says yep.
Yeah so today what do you think he's going to say?
umm yeah but I'm not going to get my braces today.
It would probably be in like a month or two months.
So I am excited for this orthodontist appointment.
I really hope he says it's time because Sunshine is so excited to have braces she's ready to
do it.
Music
Did it hurt?
No Yuck All right 6 baby teeth on the bottom.
6 on the top.
Great making progress.
Her teeth don't like to come out by themselves.
Yeah its going to be a while before we see the others come out based on what looks to
be what I like to call a atrophic eruption.
The permanent tooth looks like its offset relative to the baby tooth.
So even though in a vertical since we are making progress this way most of the time
we end up with a situation the two look like they are running into each other but spatially
one is out front and the other one is in behind.
She definitely has some grinding issues if you look at those flat marks on the k9.
See these right here.
Tip your chin up for me.
Bite.
Bite all the way on your back teeth.
There you go now what I want you to try to do is keep your teeth touching and move your
jaw over to the side a little bit.
Good keep going.
There you go keep going ok right there.
See how well those two match up.
Go back and forth slide on it.
She has plained those out by going side to side by grinding at night.
To the point where she has a wear pattern on those teeth.
So that could be a contributing factor to the way the front teeth are flared.
She's pushing her jaw up.
There's two schools of thought.
One way is that we can watch that really only primarily showing on the baby teeth.
I think we would be ok to monitor it for a little bit.
The other school of thought is to have them sleep in something at night that will separate
it a little bit that way they grind on a little smooth platform that is built into the back
of the retainer.
So it will separate her molars so they move around they actually glide on this little
ice skating rink.
Any sports or anything shes involved in.
Karate.
Karate so you are wearing a mouth guard for that right?
No she doesn't do sparring yet she just started.
Ok She is not getting hit in the face.
Absolutely positively even when its not intentional thing it's like soccer it's not designed to
be a contact sport we get more injuries with soccer then we do football.
For obvious reasons football has a mask and mouthguard.
With the protrusion here and how they extend past the lip. They are susceptible to fracture.
So get a mouthguard?
Absolutely want you wearing a mouth guard.
So there's not an accidental collision with someone's head or elbow.
When you're sparring over here and bump into somebody else that's a sad day when we chip
our front teeth off.
Yeah that would not be fun.
I think at this point I wouldn't say we had any real reason to go have the baby teeth
taken out.
When you mentioned that they didn't like to fall out on their own.
Has she had to have that happen before?
3 have had to be removed.
The long term plan is that we need to continue to see eruptions.
Yes.
We need to continue monitor the discrepancy in the way the jaw is aligned.
So if she would like to do it now there you watch her push her chin forward to match up.
My assessment without looking at an x-ray of the side.
Is that her upper jaw is in a nice position but all of her teeth are flared forward in
that jaw which could be corrected.
So upper jaw i'm happy with.
Lower jaw is lagging behind a little bit and so if we make the correction.
Now if you can ease your jaw up.
See how she pushes her jaw forward.
Ultimately I don't want her to be past the front teeth in an underbite but I do want
the bottom jaw and teeth to come forward.
There is a time when their adolescent growth spurt is occurring and try and take advantage
of that.
This is not the time in my opinion it is a little too early.
So I would suggest we stay in the six month rotation.
So we will monitor it.
She's not in any pain.
Ok Call if you have any problems.
If you have any questions let me know.
Yes sir.
Alright thank you.
Thank you to.
Ready?
Yeah.
Let's go to the front and make our appointment.
Where's my iPad?
I don't know where did you put it?
Did you bring it in?
No you didn't.
Where then is it?
Ipads lost hurry go back in there and find it!
Did you leave it by the tooth place?
Music
It's not there?
Lets look in the car.
Maybe you didn't bring it in.
Is it in the car?
No It's not in the car?
Just kidding Haha.
Oh my gosh you had me.
What a little trickster.
It's not in here I promise.
I don't even believe you.
Can I go get some ice cream?
You need ice cream?
Yeah.
It's 8 in the morning.
I know.
I need ice crea.
Of course we are going to get ice cream.
Yeahhhhh.
Can we go to um I was about to say Starbucks.
Starbucks?
ewww Um can we go to the place ridleys.
No it has to be something fast it can be like a cone from Mcdonalds or a blizzard from Dairy
Queen.
Dairy Queen!
Oh my gosh you spit all over me ewwww ewww.
Dairy Queen.
Yes Dairy Queen let's go.
I like M&M's.
Hello it's going to be 6.93.
Breakfast of champions.
I know when you see the orthodontist in the morning you're allowed to get a blizzard.
Have a good day.
You to.
You got it love?
Yep.
In case you couldn't hear the orthodontist we got some bad news.
So Sunshine grinds her teeth and it's like wearing down her k9 baby teeth.
They aren't even points at all but he said if she's not having any pain they are just
baby teeth.
So we can fix it when she gets grownup teeth.
Also her jaw needs to be brought forward but again until she loses the right teeth baby
teeth he thinks she's not ready.
It will be something that they fix now and as she grows they will have to fix again.
So the result is what Sunshine?
We are going to go back in six months.
Come back in six months again.
Dumm dum daa maybe you will lose more teeth by then.
Can you lose some teeth.
I will be 9 by then.
This kid can not lose teeth like almost every tooth has been pulled by a dentist.
Seriously I am not kidding.
Talk to your baby teeth tell them to get out of here.
Stay a baby forever?
Alright taking this kid back to school then I have to finish my work day.
Well guys thank you so much for watching Sunshines orthodontist appointment today.
She's kinda bummed she still isn't getting braces and I have to say we are getting close
to big man starting to go and see the orthodontist.
So he might actually start braces before her which would be crazy.
Hope to see you guys back tomorrow.
We have karate and we are going to try out some festival hair styles.
So tune in for that.
See you tomorrow bye....
