what type of handpiece you were using on 9:59?

Where?

At the beggining of the video there is a warning that this was done in those times and may not suitable for today's standards, nevertheless, these very brave surgeons and patients have great merit and my hat is off to them, of course results are not perfect, the cooperation between (and not the nit-picking) orthodontists and surgeons improves results vastly, sometimes patients fail to recognize this and make a choice of not having braces, economics & time are the main reasons.

wow

[stormysky86]

The midline? The whole occlusion is quite strange..

This case of surgery is a crime O_o couldn't they put on braces??

[miraamshah]

dentistry of the PAST!!!!!

nowadays this kind of treatment will be forbidden!

[franzcasablancas]

Oh really? can u show us the new alternative?

[miraamshah]

well did u think about a orthodontic treatment???? And what about a compoite facing on 21 instead of that ugly crown

[franzcasablancas]

oh orthodontics..... well, it's obviously that performing this surgical treatment, is indeed to have preliminary exams such as ricketts for bone measures and for soft tissue.... also serial x rays and ct's..... so it is so much more believable the video posted rather than the alternative treatment you are proposing......

[rmgj]

No one claimed this is up to date, quite the contrary was made clear from the very start, and the University of Michigan School of Dentistry is most kind in sharing these historical files and cases, still, if you perk your ears, there is quite a bit of hints, points and history te be seen here, and, by the way, if you say nowadays you are talking about the present, so, "will be forbidden" is faulty grammar.

But the midline still not right
