I wish you well on your ortho treatment, Butters. Sounds like you did a thorough investigation before committing, which, in my opinion, is a smart way to start. It also gives you more peace of mind when you go thru the trials and tribulations of braces, knowing you're doing the right thing with the right orthodontist.
