    I had been taking my chlid to Dr. Lynda Dean Dru. They want to put a pallet expander on her and $4,000 now for plan A and later if she needs braces more $$?? Said she needed a pallet expander and now say her back teeth don't line up perfectly.

    I took her to see another doctor for some advice not really a consult, and said he could not see yet that she definitely needed the expander, she was right on the cusp (he wanted to do the consult after two loose teeth on top fell out). So far only one has fallen out. Something about waiting to see how these teeth pushed their way in. Said nothing to me about her back teeth being slightly unaligned. That was with Dr. Daczkowski who I really liked and probably should go back to.

    So I now have an actual consult set up with Dr. Casa Grande and was wondering if anyone uses him in Brambleton or Dr. Daczkowski over in Professional Plaza.

    We have been to a couple of Orthodontist in the area but have been very pleased with Dr. Daczkowski. He is great with the kids and we personally didn't feel like I was part of the production line at some locations. He is always willing to work with his patients and the parents.

    Dr. Casagrande and his entire staff is wonderful. We, too had all kinds of outrageous recommendations for our son's teeth from "another office". Thankfully, we didn't move forward with that treatment plan.

    My son just got his braces off after only 11 months- no expanders, no extractions were necessary. I am know every child is going to be different in their treatment plan. I just know based on what I was told from our former dentist/orthodontist my son would have been way 'over treated'. I am so pleased we went with Dr. Casagrande.

    I also recommend Dr Apt. Have many friends that go to both Dr Apt and Dr D - and no complaints about either...

    We use Dr. D and he did use the expander for my son in third grade. We are getting ready for the last stage of braces going into 8th grade. We've been very happy with the results and his staff..... you are always in and out quickly too!

    I'm glad to hear that people like Casagrande! My husband has really complicated orthodontic issues that he wants to get fixed, and that was the doctor we were thinking of using.
