Parents are the Heroes in Orthodontics

By far the individuals with the most unappreciated role in the orthodontic treatment of a
child are the parents. tt is the mom or dad that bears the responsibility for making the
appointment, bringing the child to the appointment, coordinating schedules, and usually
being unappreciated in the process. Look at usually any mother's (and many times
fathers) planners and it is amazing that an additional monthly commitment
is even workable.

Who picks the child up from soccer or dance or whatever and rushes to get to the
orthodontic appointment on time? Who gets the phone call at the most inopportune
time and must change their schedule at the last minute to bring the child in for some
unexpected emergency? Who hears the words - I can't find my retainer'? Who worries
about the child not brushing well enough, and who gets the complaining that something
else is more important? The answer to all these questions is mom or dad. The parent
also is the one who hears the gripes and woes of the patient.

Parents are the "Heroes" of the orthodontist. tt is the parent that must put the child
before all else, and make a financial commitment because they know whether their child
wants braces or not, it is the "right"thing to do.
