OOPS! I should mention that the two teeth right below her front

teeth are not both her middle bottom teeth. one is and the other one

is her 2nd from the middle.

Anne,

Livia is such a cutie pie! I can't get over how big she is

getting!! I agree with Kendra and Marci that Livia does look to have

a cross bite. Whether or not its from the plagio, who knows. I know

that during high school, there were quite a few kids that had a cross

bite, but they all had nice round heads. See a pediatric dentist and

get their opinion. Let us know what they say.

Anne,

Livia is so cute!! I would talk with a pediatric dentist and see if its

something to be concerned about or not. Plenty of kids have dental work

done- no surprises there!
