Phase 3 complete Ortho Install






Yeah! This final install of Sophia's appliances went much smoother than last time.




Her bottom space maintainer now fits correctly and is glued into place. We no longer have to turn the key on the top expander. 2 weeks of key turning did the trick. They glued the keyhole shut to lock it in place. The mask is fitted and she'll be wearing it 12+ hours a day. We go back in 8 weeks for a check. The whole process is expected to generate results by April and be done by next Fall.
