frenums, GOOD pics in presentation
http://www.brianpalmerdds.com/frenum.htm
Went a-googling after I noticed DS's upper lip frenum (under top lip at centre front) looks thick and long, just like in the pics in the presentation, (In fact I wondered at first if he'd sucked the inside of his upper lip between his front teeth) and I'm wondering if I should do something, and if so, who I should ask for an assessement. My sister has SEVERE front tooth protrusion with a very large diastema and I now wonder if this was her problem, after reading this site and looking at the pics. (my mom says DS has a "small face" just like my sister did, and she didn't nurse my sister for very long at all) VERY interesting stuff, big bfding advocate for correct bite/tooth alignement Dawn, with one more thing to fret about ;-) :-/ |

I had a severe diastema from an upper frenum that extended down between my front teeth. Had it removed under general anesthesia when I was about 8. No idea how the preop work was done (e.g., who my parents had me see) but I can ask my mom about it. -- iphigenia www.tristyn.net "i have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. i do not think that they will sing to me." |

(ie when should I worry?) Did you need orthodontics afterwards? Dawn |
