please help me out and take this survey if you have already had premolar extractions:   it's to get statistics on how many get negative consequences  for advocacy work to help victims get reimbursed for reversal costs.

My name is Carlos Lopez. I’m an Adult male and I’m struggling with trying to get my Orthotropics Orthodontist to reopen the incomplete spaces for implants that the very well known Orthodontist in Los Angeles left incomplete when he retired and sold the practice to another much younger and seemingly inexperienced Orthotropics Ortho that made me do gumgrafts for gum supposedly more gum support. When that was never an issue for the recreation is premolar spaces in the beginning using an appliance similar to the one you used! But when the new Orthotropics Ortho came on board he took them off when they were workin really well and like I said sorta freaked out over my gums thinking the recession had been due to the expansion and little spaces created for top and bottom premolar space creation of like 2mm. I just needed to wear them longer that’s all but they were working fine. So I’ve already paid them both $20,000( the retired Ortho and the young one that bought his practice) and now he recently had me do gum grafts which my Periodontist completed for another $8,000 and now he wants me to have an SFOT( surgically facilitated orthodontics) in order for him to reopen spaces cause he feels it facilitates movement of teeth. And that would be another $20,000 grand according to my periodontist. When with Dr Hang(He has vast experience in working with older adults)it was never an issue. This has been going on back and forth for the last three years and the new Ortho just doesn’t seem to care.I mean with Dr. hang my teeth had already been shown to move fine. But it appears this new younger Ortho that took over does not want to do it the way Dr. hang was opening spaces with just the Bio Bloc( saggital) appliances! But unfortunately took off and retired and sold practice.
who’s your Orthodontist and where is the practice from? I’m out of Los Angeles, California. Please Help I am left hanging with incomplete reopening of spaces for implants for the upper and lower premolars and I’m still being told I have to have the SFOT procedure in order to reopen back premolar spaces for new implants. Please,please, please help
