Dr. Whetton did my braces many many years ago (almost two decades - yikes!) leaving me with perfectly straight teeth that are still perfectly straight. He put in a permanent retainer across my bottom teeth and EVERY single dental professional who has been in my mouth has complimented it. They can't believe how well placed it is! They can't believe it's still in there! They can't believe how straight my teeth are! Both my brother and I had our retainers put in back in 1999 and they are still going strong. Meanwhile, my friends from middle school and high school have bottom teeth that need braces again.
Today I was getting my teeth cleaned and yet another dental hygienist raved about how great my orthodontist must have been. So thankful that my parents had the money and sense to go to Dr. Whetton. He was the fourth orthodontist my parents consulted with. As a kid I didn't understand why we couldn't just pick one, but now I appreciate that they put in the effort to pick the right one.
