Testimony of June 19, 2008

jeudi 19 juin 2008

Bonjour

We had contacted an orthodontist for our 9-year-old daughter.
Recommended treatment: We cut the tongue retainer that was too short, we pulled the six-year molars that hadn't come in, we pulled a few teeth, and then the appliance!! Our daughter was terrified and so were we.

One evening, I "accidentally" opened a magazine to a page describing your book. I immediately bought it and contacted your former office (as "by chance" it was 15 km from our home).
We have been working with the activator for a few weeks now, my daughter and I.
I had lived with completely "misaligned" teeth until now.
I am really surprised to see how quickly my teeth are straightening and taking their place in such a short time; I can already see the difference with my naked eye.
I admit that it is quite tiring from an energetic point of view; I feel like I am working; I wear the appliance every night and wake up quite exhausted. In fact, the person following me advised me to ease up a bit.
I have noticed that my teeth, in addition to straightening, are staining much less than before and are no longer getting tangled as quickly.
And then, I have the feeling that I have started to make my mark in relation to my surroundings. I round off a lot less, I take my place at the same time as my teeth straighten.

As for our daughter, she has understood that the work comes from her and she does her exercises conscientiously. She still doesn't sleep with the activator. She can't fall asleep with it but she tries to keep it in her mouth every night a little.
She gets along very well with the dentist who follows her and asks the questions she wants to ask with complete confidence.
We find her already much more calm than she was.
Next month, she will continue the work with the placement of spacers. She is aware of it and is serene.

My testimony is long but I find that there is still little feedback on this practice and I wish to share our recent experience as best as possible.
We find it regrettable and the word is weak that the information passes so little. We talk about it as much as possible around us, hoping to contribute our modest share to the development of dentosophy.

It is true that often when we talk to people about it, they let out a cry when we start saying that the treatment is not "covered".
There would be a lot to say about the financial issue.
I am a part-time home helper, my husband works on a cheques emploi service as well, but "by chance" again, we find the necessary budget every month and at no moment do we regret this choice.
We will even bring our five-year-old son on time. It is such a chance for them!

Here is our "little" testimony. We will certainly have the opportunity to say more and will try to do our best to transmit.

A big thank you to you for this wonderful work.
Best regards
