A Genetic Marvel

That's what a doctor recently called me. It wasn't intended to be a compliment. The phrase popped back into my head a few days later when I took Allie for her routinely scheduled Dental visit. It was at that appointment that we discovered that Allie is missing her 2 lateral incisor teeth. It's really not all that surprising since this is something that my Dad, Eric's sister, and myself have all had to deal with. Thanks to Allie's genetic heritage, she too will get the opportunity to wear braces, have false teeth attached to her braces and then retainer, and eventually have surgery to implant teeth. You're welcome Allie. Hey, there are worse things you could have inherited...just ask my Doctor.
