Re: Regression after 2nd DOC Band

November 18, 2007

I think it is possible that a child can regress even after a year.

CT told us 1% of their babies regress. My guess is that not

everyone that has a child that regresses goes back so the 1% or 2%

is probably just of the ones that return. I would think that you

could get the 5.5 mm diag diff down if your daughter wears the band

23/7...is there a reason they are just doing nights? It is

interesting to me because CT does not recommend night only but other

orthos/clinics do. I wouldn't worry about the regression but if it

does happen then cross that bridge when you get to it.
