Dd has an over bite, we've been reffered, waiting list for years but also told the treatment timing is critical, jaw growth.
With covid etc it's been challenging, anyway, finally get her in and have phone appointments etc.
Orthadonrist asking questions about how daughter feels? I say well she's only known what's she's know re teeth and cosmetically she's blissfully unaware of looks etc.
He then asked her this when we saw him... And again the last time "what is your problem with your teeth, what do you hope to achieve... How do you feel about now your teeth look."
He's actually got a reputation for being rude and I'm absolutely furious that instead of simply doing the treatment he's asking these questions.
The reasons I am upset is because dd is very comfortable in her looks, she's not one for pamper parties, make up, nails etc at all.
She's 13 and seems very happy in her skin. She's not into shaving legs etc and seems wonderfully un touched by this media on slaught.
So to couch these questions on looks me.also on terms of looks how she feels now.... And how self conscious she may feel at 16 are vastly different things...
And its not something I want to even talk about because then it sounds like she does have a problem!!
