Hi, My 8 year old son has a dental anterior cross-bite problem, his pediatric dentist would like put a permanent acrylic retainer with metal and springs that she'll adjust every 4 weeks on his top pallet. I decided to take him to an orthodontist for a second opion who recommended putting braces on his front 6 teeth to correct the problem. HELP! Which treatment is better?

Dear Rosemary,
For a SIMPLE anterior crossbite problem in an 8 year old child, both of the treatments you have described are equally acceptable.
