Braces!

On October 28th 2013 Griffen had his first set of braces put on. Griff was more excited than nervous. He couldn't wait to see how they would look with bands in his favorite colors, orange and black.
This is the start of a 2 part journey in braces. This first set will be on for approximately 12-14 months and then around the age of 13-15 Griff will receive his second set.
He has done an amazing job brushing and flossing, which isn't easy to do around all of that metal. Dr. Max showed him a picture of what teeth will look like after braces if he does a poor job brushing. He is very worried about getting holes in his teeth so I don't forsee an issue on keeping up with good oral hygiene.
