I hope people read this before committing to Dr Almy. Bottom line is my son was miss diagnosed as a stage one case when he was really a stage three with an under bite. What does this mean? As a 10 year old, his jaw will continue to grow until he is 20 and braces won't help his situation. Dr Almy recommended braces/brackets (which we did relying on her opinion) for over a year. Then we were going to roll into "stage two" for more time with a retainer and such. Well, all this was going to do was pull the front teeth out to meet the bottom teeth basically adding more space between the top teeth. There isn't a fix to my son's ortho issue unless he chooses to have jaw surgery to permanently fix the issue. I feel taken for paying for unnecessary braces and bad for my son for having to wear them for no reason. Thank goodness we transferred and received a good second opinion or who knows where this care would have ended up.
