Guest guest Posted January 30, 2003 Report Share Posted January 30, 2003 Ellen, Charissa's teeth came in very slowly. I mean this both ways - they started coming in later than normal and they took forever to get all the way in. Her last baby tooth (top canine) came in when she was 4 years old! Many of her permanent teeth started forming years later than normal, some started forming after they were " supposed " to already be in. She got her last permanent molar just this past year. She just finished 8 years of orthodontic treatment. We have an excellent pediatric dentist & orthodontist who communicate well and often - which is *very* important in complicated cases like this. I wouldn't worry too much about Hanna's teeth yet - some of her baby teeth could still be forming.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 Irene, Hanna doesn't have very large spaces between her teeth, so I guess it may turn out to be good that she isn't going to get those 3 teeth. It all is just very frustrating to us. It seems like we can never catch a break...just when we get one issue resolved, we have a new one to tackle and yet another specialist to add to our list. It would be amazing if something could just go the way it should for Hanna instead of always being a whole production. ellen > > Hi everyone, > > I don't post very often, but I often have you in my thoughts.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 That's interesting! I have pre osteoporosis (osteopenia) and I should be @ peak bone mass or still building.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Thanks for the information. I found bio-identical dentists to be extremely expensive. I have had some success in arming myself with information to non bio-identical dentists and seeing if they will work with me. I will take your information and see if he is willing to use Belleglass and Holistore instead of pure porcelin. However, if that is not possible, is plain porcelin a second-best alternative? I am just trying to go in with plan A and plan B. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
