Carter got his appliance off today! Yay!!! He is so excited to feel smooth teeth in his mouth again instead of all the metal. And Dr. Lucas gave him a bag of all the goodies he couldn't eat while he had the appliance in.
Carter goes back in 6 months to see if he's lost more baby teeth. Once he does, we'll decide on when to start the next phrase, which is probably a palette expander.
Unfortunately, when we went to the dentist last week, we discovered Rylan has the same issue with his upper 6-year-old molars coming in over his baby molars (which are eroding them). So Rylan will be visiting Dr. Lucas on Monday for his first consultation. Yikes!
