After 12 years of wearing braces and retainers, my teeth have again become crooked. I have also noticed that my friends and sisters who had been to Dr. Meldrum have also experienced the same results. In addition, local dentists and other orthodontist have told me that this is what happens to all of his patients and that if I wanted my teeth straight, I'd have to wear braces again.
When I went for check-ups after my braces were removed, I noticed my teeth starting to become crooked. But, Dr. Meldrum never mentioned that my teeth were misaligned or that I'd need more braces if I wanted them straight like his models. He simply took about 5 minutes looking at my teeth and said, "Everything looks great."
Also, when I had my braces put on, the dental assistant accidentally burnt the side of my mouth because she was talking and didn't realize that the light gun had moved. And when they shaved down my teeth, the dental assistant "missed" and now, I have what looks like a crack on my tooth.
I am extremely disappointed in the job that he has done on my teeth. I suggest if you are willing to pay for extra treatments in the future to go for it. If not, you should search for a different orthodontist.
