Braces For My Teeth: Science And Posterity

As I mentioned before regarding my orthodontics braces, placing braces on my teeth was a challenge. Even the moulds that were taken of my teeth before treatment began were somewhat problematic in obtaining.

Thinking more about it now, I would have liked the dental office to have video recorded the installation of my braces. This video, I think, would have been useful to show orthodontics students as part of their education, or for use in dentistry or orthodontics lectures; or something. The reason is simply that I like science, and I think I would have made a good test case. My teeth, that is.

Not that I would have somehow advanced the progression of dental science, but I would have thought it helpful as a teaching tool. At least they have the X-rays and the moulds to use. Although I am interested in those artifacts as well.

I am certain I am not the worst they have seen anyway.
