My son is finding it hard to eat and talk with his new brace, what should we do?
Q.
My son had both top and bottom set of braces fitted 3 days ago and much to my shock, he was also fitted with a device that looks like a cage in the roof of his mouth. We weren’t advised by his dentist prior to the treatment that this would be fitted and now my son is traumatised as he cannot eat or talk properly with it fitted. He wants it removing. His dentist told us it was a standard piece of kit when having a brace fitted but as he did not prior advise of this, as he fitted something that wasn’t necessary?

My advice would be to see your dentist and talk about your concerns.
