One article that I found, relating to my wonderful project of course, was about a woman who needed braces after her pregnancy, with twins, sapped the calcium from her teeth, causing them to separate. The first word that came to mind was: strange. I know a bit about the whole pregnancy process, like how the baby is basically a little leech, feeding off of the mother's nutrients, which is the reason all mommies-to-be need pre-natal vitamins and such. It's very odd that her preganacy sapped her calcium thought. Perhaps she didn't take her vitamins as directed or maybe, because she was carrying twins she should have taken twice as many vitamins? This article did two things to me: make me feel excited to join the dentistry field and find out more about cases like this and scared to have children. Friday, February 12, 2010

Excellent entry! This is some very cool information that you uncovered. This is probably becoming more and more problematic as more adults get braces. When I was young, braces were for kids only!
