Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / May 2005Will dental brace help (pictures included)
The pictures at the following link http://www.geocities.com/markliu1989 show my overbite problem. I am a male in his early 30's. The overbite is roughly estimated to be nearly 6mm. Given what you see, will dental brace help correct it? Thanks. Hello Mark, Yes orthodontic treatment will help. It is desired but certainly not essential. Joel Your overjet and overbite appear to be within normal limits, but the teeth are somewhat crooked. > The pictures at the following link > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Thanks. Thanks. It surprises me to learn that my overbite is considered normal, but it no doubt looks bad. BTW, is there any dental insurance that covers (at least partially) orthodontic treatment like brace? > Thanks.

Benefits are generally not great and may have lifetime maximums and age restrictions. Don't know about the trout part.

They come as a benefit package with employment for certain companies. The ones that I see also are limited to $800-$1500 as a single lifetime benefit and only for 18 and under (no adult benefits). Dan might chime in with more accurate details.

The rejuvenated old hobby has been one project after another. Working on a Peltier cooler that won't burn the house down tonight. And very little golf - weather hasn't cooperated with scheduled time off. Dan Know the feeling. Had to move one kid this month also. Angie is having knee surgery tomorrow at Research (tore her ACL about 4 weeks ago). Didn't screw up mother's day. Local dental study club last night. KCK made it to the regional tournament in Wichita which starts tomorrow also. Have a good weekend, Fawks > Just been busy, moved one kid back into town last weekend - family wedding > next weekend.

Probably crying over the spilt beer, from his favourite Canadian brewery Molson's. All 52,416 bottles of it!

Already knew http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=583&e=2&u=/nm/20050511/od_nm/can ada_beer_dc "Police said the beer-soaked sand would be scooped into bins and returned to the supplier for destruction." Sounds like the USA does not quite have the market cornered on anal idiots just yet. carabelli | > | On Wed, 11 May 2005 12:53:54 GMT, Steven Fawks | > <tuthjockey@earthlink.net> [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] | > | Already knew http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=583&e=2&u=/nm/20050511/od_nm/can ada_beer_dc | "Police said the beer-soaked sand would be scooped into bins and returned to | the supplier for destruction." [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] | | carabelli Has more to do with taxes and cleanup costs. Hefty taxes are charged by the # of gallons or litres that leave the brewery. The taxes are probably worth more than the lost beer. By destroying the entire load the taxes are not collected. The glass and cardboard are recycled, skids recovered. If you think about it, sand is not a good absorbent, it was used to divert flow to the sewers and decrease slipperiness. That news piece is a little off base. Molson's being it's own shipper was responsible for cleanup. The faster they got it cleaned up the less likely they would be facing fines/charges for keeping the highway shut down. Some actuary has actually figured out the cost of having the highway closed to the economy. Extended delays with just in time shipping for the auto industry for example are horrendous. The accident happened at 6:20 AM just as our 3 hour, rush hour is starting. I caught a glimpse of the tractor trailer being towed past my window at about lunch time.

Still, all that beer, I won't sleep well tonight. Dan yes Signature~+--~+--~+--~+--~+-- Stephen [What's a Temporary?], D.D.S. Michigan, USA ....................................................
