Guest guest Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Hi , has major orthodontic issues that we have been trying to take care of for years. It is the one area of specialty that I have had the hardest time finding someone who can help him. I am so glad that we are finally getting the ball rolling after going to a nearby dental university for 2 years! Of course, overcrowding is an issue for many RS kids, but 's is extreme. In addition to needing several teeth pulled (who know how many adult teeth he will end up with?), his gums are basically overgrown and covering a good majority of his teeth in the back and on the sides. There are some medications that can cause this, but has never been on any of them. My theory is that his gums are like that, because he has basically not eaten his whole life. I think chewing food on a regular basis may have prevented this from happening. I have no idea if this is the real cause, just a guess! Kim C. Kim, I saw the post of what is having done. Why is he? Poor thing. I will be praying for him. B 5 3/4 and Kelli 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
