More on Truax appliances without surgery

[Guest guest]

It's me again, I forgot to give the actual address of that site -

http://www.truaxcorrectors.com/

And when you get to that site, scroll down until you see the

logo " AMR " on the lower-left side. There is a video that you can

watch. Just click on " 56K " or " Cable " depending on your connection.

This video is from the American Medical Review documentary/show. It

illustrates how these Truax correctors can be used instead of surgery

to correct over/underbite.

Your comments? Is this a bunch of bulls--t? Or are you intrigued? And

why, if they have successful outcomes, isn't this technique so

popular? I just Google'd " Truax correctors " and only found a handful

of sites. I would bet that my local orthodontist doesn't know anything

about it...

-Well, Gene - It looks like you are searching for other ways to correct

your malocclusion that are less invasive than surgery. As far as I'm

concerned, this looks like yet another money-making scheme. I, like

many on this site, have a specific medical condition with a specific

treatment plan that includes Orthognathic Surgery. If you don't want to

have surgery, then don't. I've accepted the fact that surgery is in my

future, that is my choice, and I do this for ME. Looks like you are

looking for an " easy fix " to a complicated skeletal defect. ~~ Diane--
