*WIRED*

A few weeks ago, Laura began her first phase of orthodontic treatment. She has a pretty significant underbite and also some issues with spacing, jaw size. She will wear these braces for at least 15 months. After that they will let more of her permanent teeth come in (she will wear retainers during that time) and than see what they need to do in phase two (let's hope nothing)!

So, here is my girl's new "smile".

At the orthodontist - "Before" & below is "After"

oooohhhh, Wired! I get it! Yes, I'm going to chalk it up to the fact that it was the middle of the night!

Anyway, wow, you're right! That is a lot of metal! Poor thing!

Awwww, poor girl. The good news is that she's absolutely beautiful, with or without braces!

Hi Amy :)
certamente Laura ha un bel pò di metallo in bocca... ma il suo sorriso rimane ugualmente delizioso !!!
Bellissima bimba.
Un abbraccio coccoloso tutto per lei.
