Hailey’s New Hardware

Hailey went to the dentist last month and apparently he told Emily that Hailey was in for quite an orthodontic experience. We kinda already knew that, but what we didn’t know was that we needed to get started right away in order to help correct the weirdness that’s going on in her mouth. As a result of this announcement, Hailey now has a newly installed apparatus in the roof of her mouth. The purpose of this unit is to widen her mouth a bit for the teeth that still need to come in. Each day we have to crank a little gear built into the little thing which pushes her upper molars apart. I guess it’s doing its job, but it’ll be interesting to see how they plan to correct everything that’s apparently “wrong” with her mouth. Hooray for modern technology and medicine I guess.

Here’s a couple pictures of Hailey’s pre-hardware smile.
