Guest guest Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 I agree with Sandy. Three weeks seems like a very short time to be banded and then go to night wear only. At 5mo. you have many growth spurts to go, I would hate to see you lose correction. It is outgrown when the fit is tight and there are no more adjustments left to make. Facial asymmetry is one of the last things to come around, you have to have the plates moving in the right direction first and the everything else can move where it should be. Does that make sense to you??
