Braces!

We have entered a new era as both Nora and Henry start having some orthodontic work done. On our first visit they made a scan of Henry's mouth in order to make his space maintainers and measured Nora for braces. He was pleased to learn that he didn't have to have spacers put in as was originally planned and could have popcorn for a few more weeks. He will have four teeth taken out next month.

On her second visit Nora had braces put on her top teeth to bring them a little closer and make room for a tooth that is coming in crooked. They are supposed to be on for six months to a year. So no gum or chewy candy for this child.

(And no picture of her with the new braces, but they look good on her.)
