Re: hanger or starband same or not

[Guest guest]

my daughter wore a starband for brachy and did very well. However I

agree with Jen that the ortho is the most important piece in the

decision. Make sure the ortho is well trained and experienced. Ask for

before and after pics, what results you can expect, etc. In general I

think star and hanger products are about the same.
