Poor Julie!!!! Helen has braces and hopefully will be finished with them around Christmastime this year. She got them in February 2003, and she has done everything he told her to do, with that occasional pain, as well. We are hoping that since she has been an obedient patient, that she will wear them the 22 months that he said would be a minimum, but there is no assurance of that. Her last appt, in late March, gave her more pain than any other so far, but it only lasted a day or so. I hope you will have the same experience!!!
