What is the AARP Position on Orthodontia?


It's been a hectic few days. Our local election, the World Series, working and my chipped tooth! The chipped tooth has been rebonded and thankfully seems to be holding its own. But I had a surreal moment at the dentist's office on Monday afternoon. It seems my bite may be causing my problem and somehow orthodontia might be an answer. Buttercup is reeling! I had thought my days of wearing braces -- 1960 to 1965 -- were well behind me. This is a last resort, but if it's orthodontia ($$) vs. another implant ($$$$$) for my front tooth, I'll certainly think about it. Senior citizens and braces -- is this usual or is Buttercup a trendsetter? Does anyone have an orthodontist's number in their speed dial?

Enjoy a beautiful autumn day!
