Hi,
My daughter recently went to the orthodontist's.
Her upper canines are way too high. One of which is somehow "hidden" in the gum.
The orthodontist:
1) dug a hole with a laser (!) to get to the canine teeth. Scary.
2) plugged some kind of "button" onto this teeth (the white-ish button you see, first image)
3) plugged some kind of nail onto a molar (I think ; second image)
4) wired both things.
She said it would take maybe 2 months for the teeth to "show up", by doing this.
Does this approach seem OK to you? I have never seen anything like this before!
Thank you
