I'm sorry if I came off as defensive, that wasn't my intention. When I said I forgot what forum I was posting to I only meant that I also post on a forum that deals exclusively with clefts, so, in this case, I didn't give appropriate background.
That being said, my daughter's doctor is extremely competent and very used to dealing with kids with very messed up teeth. Again, I'm not saying it's good to metaphorically "throw the baby out with the bathwater", but I do think it's legitimate to evaluate kids' teeth in the context of them not being permanent. Not only because of the cost involved, but also because of the pain of treatment.
