:::: FROM THE PUBLISHER

Vol. 1, No. 2 TM

Publisher Derrick Breaux

On a Mission to Get Healthy Well, the time has come. I am nearly 39 years old. Yep, the big “40” is looming around the corner. It’s time for me to shed some weight and get healthier. Nutrition. Diet. Exercise. These are some of our favorite talking points. I spend so much time thinking about it and talking about it – now I’m just doing it. For the next several months I will be on an intense program consisting of nutrition and exercise. I have chosen to kick start my lifestyle change with a juice reboot diet – only juice consisting of a variety of vegetables and fruits. I will then transition to a diet primarily consisting of micronutrient fruits, vegetables, beans, and nuts (I can’t believe that I’m actually writing this) followed by the introduction of fish and other lean proteins. My ultimate goal is to get healthy – from the inside out. I am told that the side effects will consist of significant weight loss, lots of energy, and a longer estimated life expectancy. Not too bad if you ask me! I’ve already started the program, and by the time you read this I will have been on the program for over a month. I started it right – I planned and prepared. I even had my wife take the customary “shirtless” photos to use as a reference – not sure how I feel about showing these to people though. So wish me luck! There’s no turning back now as I’ve actually published my health goal. I figured it was all in or nothing. I’ll post an update in the next issue and I’ll keep my Facebook page updated on the progress. Want to join me? It’s the perfect time of the year to make a healthy change! Email me at publisher@zcodemedia.com to share your story.

Kylie Ann Loveland 14 Carlsbad High School Freshman Keith and Sue Loveland Michelle Loveland, 23

Kylie Loveland Finds the Perfect Balance On and Off Her Surfboard by Michelle Tremblay | photos by Soul of Photography

ike many kids growing up in Southern California, Kylie Loveland was exposed to the sport of surfing at an early age, and for her, it seemed to be love at first sight. “One day I was at the beach with my family and I saw a little boy surfing ‘on the inside’ and I thought it was the coolest thing,” described Kylie. “My dad asked if we could borrow their board and before I knew it, I could surf!” She was five years old at the time and she hasn’t stopped surfing since. At just ten years old, Kylie started surfing competitively, and today, at the age of fourteen, she has made quite the name for herself. Aside from being sponsored by such well-known companies as Roxy, Rusty Surfboards, Sticky Bumps, and Surfride, Kylie has a number of accolades already under her belt, including earning the champion title during the National Scholastic Surfing Association (NSSA) Surf Competition for middle school girls in 2011, and the state champion title for the Scholastic Surf Series for middle school girls in 2011 and 2012. She is currently competing in the NSSA, Surfing America Prime, and Jr. Pro events.

14 • 92011Magazine.com • October | November 2012

With all these accomplishments, one would wonder how a girl could ever get anything else done. Kylie seems to have figured it out. In addition to her surfing career, Kylie has a modeling job on the side. She is also an outstanding student – maintaining a 4.0 grade point average – and likes to just be a normal teenager. “Most of the time I do my homework on the way to and from surfing, and I finish it up at night,” said Kylie. “I still find time to hang out with my friends. We like to hang out at (the surf spot) North Ponto, and we like to shop at the Carlsbad Forum.”

“One day I was at the beach with my family and I saw a little boy surfing ‘on the inside’ and I thought it was the coolest thing.” This fall, Kylie will be starting her freshman year at Carlsbad High School and looks forward to making new friends and new experiences. Apart from surfing, she enjoys math, painting, photography and exercise. “My dad helped me get started in photography,” said Kylie, “and fitness is an important part of competitive sports.” With aspirations to attend college and to ultimately make a living as a professional surfer, Kylie is not afraid to dream big. As a matter of fact, this young surfer girl doesn’t appear to be afraid of anything at all. 

elly and Brooklyn Cardenas sure have their hands full. Not only do they have two children under the age of four years old (their daughter Makena is three and a half, and their son Maddox is one), but the couple are owners of a successful, national hair salon. “I am a hairdresser and owner of Kelly Cardenas Salon in Las Vegas, Chicago, and Carlsbad,” explained Kelly. He is also National Educator for Paul Mitchell and is on the advisory board for American Salon. With all this under their belt, one has to wonder how the Cardenas family manages it all. But, they seem to have found a way, while also making family time their number one priority. Years ago, Kelly and Brooklyn met in Las Vegas. “From the moment she met me, she knew that I was the one,” joked Kelly. The couple soon started the process of opening two salons in Las Vegas and Chicago, but they weren’t quite satisfied. “My wife’s heart was always set on opening in San Diego as a home base,” said Kelly. “So opening a salon in the most beautiful place in the country was a no brainer. We originally set our sights on southern San Diego, but once we experienced North County we realized what a hidden jewel it is.” The Cardenas family settled in Carlsbad in 2012 and couldn’t be happier. “The community and people here stand out most to us,” said Kelly. “The connection point

for our children within the neighborhood is unmatched. I believe this is one of the greatest places to live in the world.” The family loves to frequent such local hangouts as Tamarack Beach in Carlsbad, and Swamis Café in Encinitas. They also love to travel - Kelly always pushing for the relaxing vacation spots, while Brooklyn likes anyplace where action is involved: “Snowboarding, scuba diving, hiking, running, everything!” exclaimed Kelly.

“We originally set our sights on southern San Diego, but once we experienced North County we realized the hidden jewel that it is.” Kelly admits that not only is he lucky in where he lives and works, but he has hit the jackpot when it comes to his family. “I feel that I am truly blessed to be able to do the work I absolutely love with the people I absolutely love and be supported by such an incredible family,” beamed Kelly. “We absolutely love spending time with each other. It’s such a genuine care, respect and love for one another. I believe I have the greatest son, daughter and wife that I could ever imagine.” 

Waste Management Encourages Residents to Include New Recycling Habits

As summer ends and students head back to school, Waste Management of San Diego encourages residents and its customers, both in and out of school, to also include new recycling habits this back to school season. Waste Management offers the following tips to reduce, reuse and recycle this school year: Pack a lunch with reusable gear: Packing a lunch is a healthy habit for both you and the Earth. Eating out often means more calories, more money and more waste, whereas bringing lunch gives you an opportunity to use leftovers and save money. By utilizing reusable gear, like a cooler lunch box or even just reusing a brown paper bag, you can save on waste. Be sure to recycle any packaging, such as bottles or cans, when you are finished. Purchase products made from recycled materials: Bring your own environmentally friendly coffee mug, use recycled paper and re-fill ink cartridges instead of buying new ones. Not only does this save on resources, it also costs less. Refilling ink cartridges can save up to 40% on the price. Utilize carpools or public transportation: While cars may be convenient, traffic and high gas prices certainly are not. Utilizing public transportation is not only cost-effective for money, it can also save you time. While on the bus or on the train, you can read, answer e-mails or take calls – all things unsafe to do while driving. Other ways to get around include organizing a carpool with others on the same schedule, walking or biking. If doing these things regularly is not feasible, consider setting up a special event, such as a “Bike to Work Day,” to see if you can contribute at least once while encouraging others to try it as well. Turn off and unplug appliances when you are not using them: Computers, printers, fax machines and other wired devices save us time when we are using them, but can cost us money when we are not. In sleep mode – and even when they are off but plugged in – these appliances use power and add to your electricity bill. Help conserve energy and your bank account by turning off and unplugging these appliances when you are not using them.

:::: IN THE SPOTLIGHT

caring tendencies Dr. Isabel David, the dentist who does it all by LINDA FRABL | photos by Michael Bielecki

any of us dread going to the dentist … we visualize scary, impersonal professionals drilling away at us. Thankfully Dr. Isabel David, of Encinitas’ “Isabel David Smile DDS,” dispels that image. As a truly generous South American sweetheart, Isabel’s natural caring tendencies perfectly compliment her choice of profession. She insisted, “I cater to my clients. I know their names, and know their kids and grandkids!” A native of Colombia, Isabel got her General Dentistry degree in 1990 from the Universidad Central de Quito, Ecuador. She did her residency at Colombia’s Children’s Hospital, and had her own dental practice until she moved to the United States. Once here, she worked in various dental offices before opening her current practice in the spring of 2006.

Elaborating on her office’s atmosphere, Isabel stated, “I like a relaxed, friendly environment to keep my patients happy. My goal is to run my business exactly how I envision it.” Isabel noted the vast impact her professional and caring staff has on her business’ success, declaring that her team works well together and stays efficient. Thus,

the reputed team continuously provides outcomes that deliver excellent patient care. In addition to learning about her patients, Isabel also instructs them – “I educate them along the way,” she exclaimed. She also instructs dental students by employing them as interns, and by teaching Restorative Clinical classes at the UCLA Dental School.

I like a relaxed, friendly environment to keep my patients happy. ~Isabel David, D.D.S.

She maintained, “I have a great passion for my career, and I like promoting the profession by helping students. It was an unexpected surprise to realize I enjoy teaching!” She also enjoys volunteering, claiming, “It’s important to give back to society. Recalling her 2010 two-week stint in Tanzania, Africa, Isabel said, “Even though it was difficult, because there was no electrical power, it was one of the most amazing, life-changing experiences of my life.” She committed to continue to raise funds for the Tanzania Children’s Foundation by providing dental care and building a permanent clinic in the Oldeani village. Dr. David also wants to meet the needs of our local community by providing her dental services on specific days at the St. James and St. Leo’s Dental Clinic in Solana Beach. This year she is launching a free one-day clinic for children in December. The annual event is geared towards those children that are coming from families who are experiencing financial hardships. More information about these events can be found on her website at www.isabeldavidsmile.com. Suffice it to say that Dr. Isabel David gives many of us a reason to smile! ¢

on shift, routine maintenance is performed inhouse. Lunch and dinner meals are communal and prepared by that days designated cook. Evenings are generally reserved for individual training needs. Although these are common day to day activities, emergency response takes precedence over all.

92011: Can you describe the most gratifying aspect of serving the Carlsbad residents? Crawford: The most gratifying aspect of serving Carlsbad residents is making someone’s life better than it was before we entered it. Knowing that you have made a positive, and at times life changing, impact on a person is gratifying beyond words. It is why I began this profession 28 years ago and it is why I continue to enjoy coming to work.

92011: How many emergency calls are dispatched from each station per month on average? Crawford: Our engines respond to an average of 123 calls per month/station and our medic units respond to an average of 224 calls per month/station.

92011: What is the most common type of call to which personnel at the stations respond? Crawford: Representing approximately 60% of our call volume, the most common type of call we respond to are EMS (Emergency Medical Services) related.

92011: Is there anything unique or unusual about the department or the stations within? Crawford: Our organization is different than most as we see our role as something more than just responding to calls. We are not a department that just does the transactional business of the Fire Department. We are engaged in all aspects of the community and see ourselves as community members. The Carlsbad Fire Department is unique in that the organization is led with focus placed on the human element.

October | November 2012 92011Magazine.com • 29

92011: What type of ongoing training for personnel at the department occurs on a regular basis? Crawford: On a regular basis personnel are participating in EMS focused (didactic and manipulative) training, multi-company evolutions based on fire ground emergency operations, and technical rescue events (confined space rescue, vehicle extrication.)

92011: Tell us about the Safety Center that is located adjacent to Station 5. What is the philosophy of having the Center? What goes on at the Center? Crawford: Training is one of the most important aspects of what we do on a daily basis. Our new Safety Training Center provides both the Police and Fire Departments the opportunity to train within a realistic environment that creates the same challenges and expectations of an actual emergency. The four acre site provides a compressed version of the types of buildings that are found within the City of Carlsbad. Also, the Police Chief and I believe that public safety for this community is a joint effort, and with the new Safety Training Center we are able to conduct training alongside each other and further develop the relationship between the two departments.

92011: Being a coastal community, what services does the Carlsbad Fire Dept. provide regarding beach front accidents/emergencies? Crawford: We respond with State Lifeguards to water related injuries at the beach and provide support to water operations by way of Incident Command and medical support.

We are also participating in public outreach and education, and are responsible for the lion share of the maintenance on our tools, equipment, and apparatus.

92011: As we head in to fire season, what would you like to tell our readers about fire preparedness? Crawford: Specific to the threat of wildland we ask that you adhere to all brush clearance suggestions that can be found on our website www. carlsbadca.gov/fire. More importantly, I would ask that readers be sensitive and prepared for any type of emergency. One way this can be accomplished is to maintain a fire safe and hazard free home.

Triathlete Michellie Jones Enjoys Racing, Horses, and the Carlsbad Life by wynne love | photos by Soul of Photography

Career Highlights: • Ironman World Champion • Olympic Silver Medalist • 2x ITU World Champion • 2x ITU World Cup Champion • Xterra World Champion • 3x Ironman Champion • 12 ITU World Cup Victories • 8 ITU World Championship Medals • 8x Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon Champion • 7x Chicago Triathlon Champion • 7x St Anthony’s Triathlon Champion • 10x San Diego International Triathlon

lympic silver medalist. Ironman world champion. Two-time International Triathlon Union (ITU) world champion. Eight Escape from Alcatraz triathlon championships. And the list goes on. Say hello to Michellie Jones. At age 43, Michellie has won just about every triathlon championship there is. She boasts over 175 wins and has been Triathlete Magazine’s Triathlete of the Year seven times. She's dominated the sport for the last twenty years and continues to do so today, training right out of her home here in Carlsbad. As you can tell when you hear her speak, Michellie hails from Australia. “I grew up in a small town southwest of Sydney called Thirlmere,” she explained. “I came back to the U.S. after the 1990 Triathlon World Championships in Florida and have lived here ever since.” Michellie makes good use of all San Diego has to offer, swimming, biking, and running throughout the county. She spends the bulk of her days training, swimming at least three days a week and running and cycling four or five. “I also coach the triathlon group Giddy Up Multisports and we meet twice a week for run and bike workouts as well as online and individual programs," added Michellie. In the afternoons, she winds down at Miller Equestrian, caring for and training her horses, CBMF Split Decision and Tinkerbell. Michellie started her athletic career running track and cross country in high school, but it wasn’t long before her skill and versatility earned her her first triathlon championship. She continues to accrue medals no matter what race or distance she takes on, winning her very first Ironman in 2005 and the World Championship in Kona the following year. Perhaps most exciting was earning a silver medal on her home turf during the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Michellie is now engaged to fellow athlete, Robin Barsantee, and plans to focus on shorter races, but don’t expect that to slow her down. Five years out, Michellie hopes she’ll still be racing, coaching, riding horses, walking her dogs, reading good books, eating out at great restaurants like Fish 101, and, as she put it, “living the good life here in Carlsbad.” 

believe in trying to leave my footprint to make things better for others,” said Yvonne Finocchiaro, the President of the Carlsbad Hi-Noon Rotary and long-time Carlsbad resident. The Carlsbad Hi-Noon Rotary is a service-oriented organization that is 96 members strong. “Rotary is a service club and our members provide service to the local and international community while working together in fellowship and fun,” explained Yvonne. Serving the community is a top priority in Yvonne’s life. She first became a Rotarian in 1990 as a member of San Diego Club #33 in downtown San Diego. She moved to the Carlsbad Hi-Noon Rotary after retiring from her position as President/CEO of LEAD San Diego in 2001. Yvonne has since retired from her non-profit management consulting practice, which she started in 2001, and is devoting her skills and time to her term as president of the Carlsbad Hi-Noon Rotary. “My personal goal is to provide our club and its members with the coordination and support they need to be effective in their individual roles,” said Yvonne. She invites those who are interested in Rotary service to come to a meeting at the Hilton Garden Inn on Carlsbad Boulevard. Meetings are held every Monday (except for federal holidays) at noon. She also invites residents and visitors to take part in the 30th Annual Oktoberfest in Holiday Park on October 6, 2012. This event is a community fundraiser that is jointly produced by the Carlsbad Hi-Noon Rotary and the Carlsbad Rotary. Yvonne describes living in Carlsbad as “living in paradise” and takes full advantage of the beaches. “I swim, boogie board, walk and enjoy everything about our beaches,” revealed Yvonne, who has lived in Carlsbad since 1997. In addition to the natural beauty of Carlsbad, Yvonne counts wonderful neighbors and an involved citizenry among her favorite things about residing in the coastal community. Spending time with her husband and best friend, Carmelo, is also a pastime that brings Yvonne a great deal of joy. Carmelo was born in Sicily and is a retired United States Marine with 20 years of service. He currently works in the defense industry. Yvonne and Carmelo have a son, daughter-in-law and two grandsons who live in Temecula. “We are lucky they live close enough to share their time and their fun. I am a very happy woman.” 

hristmas Tree Lane was started 31 years ago by a group of women who wanted to raise money for the Boys & Girls Clubs,” explained Jenny Luttrell, Special Events Coordinator for the organization. “They wanted to create an event that would focus around a holiday that they loved – Christmas!” With a theme of “A White Christmas,” this year’s highly anticipated event is expected to be more exciting than ever. The two-day extravaganza will take place December 7th through 8th at Carlsbad’s La Costa Resort and Spa, kicking off with an upscale fashion show luncheon that will highlight local designers. “The boutique fashion show luncheon is the perfect afternoon to spend with your girlfriends,” said Jenny. After the show, guests will be invited to browse and purchase clothing, jewelry, and purses featured in the show. The fundraiser will wrap up with an elegant gala dinner, including live entertainment and lots of dancing, given in honor of the donors. Of course, there will also be the traditional “tree viewing,”

where guests will be given an opportunity to win beautiful Christmas Trees decorated by local artists. This year’s committee chairs are Michele Burt and Kim Hensen. “They, along with a great committee of dedicated women, have worked tirelessly to bring this wonderful event to life,” said Jenny. “We are hoping to raise $115,000. This money helps to fund our seventeen clubs.” Jenny shared that along with their fundraising efforts, she and the committee members really hope to get the public into the holiday spirit. “It will be the perfect event to kick off your holiday season!” exclaimed Jenny. The event’s fashion show is being produced by Gretchen Productions. Other sponsors of the event include: California Bank and Trust and Greenbox Art and Culture. “We are currently looking for sponsors to be a part of this great event,” said Jenny.

Helping Senior Veterans, their Spouses and Families Get the Benefits they’ve Earned by KATHY LOY

s we age, it can be frustrating to forget where you placed your eye glasses or what was on your grocery list that you left in the car, but imagine the difficulty many senior-aged veterans have trying to obtain benefits while navigating the maze that is also called “the VA.” The saving grace for many veterans, their surviving spouses, and their families is Veteran’s Friend, a community service co-founded by Robert Dhillon and Kate Seelye. “Our call-to-duty and pledge is to help veteran families navigate the VA process correctly, protect themselves, and obtain this tax-free lifetime benefit by providing free assistance in the preparation and presentation of their claim before the VA,” explained Robert. “Like any other large government department, the VA is complex and bureaucratic. Its rules, regulations, forms and procedures can be very confusing and daunting at times, especially for seniors,” said Robert. Veteran’s Friend will listen first, then provide simple, honest answers to folks who are worried about the rising cost of long term care that is often needed by seniors. Robert and Kate are uniquely qualified to help veterans deal with the issues they face in obtaining these VA benefits. Robert, now a VA accredited claims representative, served in the US Navy and Department of Defense, and graduated

from London University with a degree in Education. Later, he spent 25 years consulting for the armed forces and large international banks. Kate, now in Senior Precision Support, has lived in the San Diego area for over 50 years and has worked in the financial services industry for over 20, while also running a small alternative holistic health practice. “We understand how stressful it can be for families of veterans, often in crisis or planning for long term care for aging parents. We provide precision answers, support, legal representation and guidance through the VA’s eligibility and application maze,” said Robert. Besides helping with their benefits, Veteran’s Friend also works to warn and guard senior veterans and widows against elder abuse practices of unscrupulous financial services companies that prey on this group of citizens. They host local events and breakfasts to bring young service men and women and older veterans together to provide education in estate and retirement planning, college education planning and long term care. If you or someone you know may need their help, give Robert or Kate a call or visit the Veteran’s Friend website. ¢

Clocking In

A Timely Checklist for Keeping your Household Ticking this Fall by WYNNE LOVE

e all remember (most of the time, anyway) to set our clocks back at the close of daylight savings. This year, we’ll fall back on the evening of November 3, and many of us will use the event as a reminder

1. 3. 5. 7.

for important household maintenance items, like changing the batteries in our smoke detectors. Here, a list of other recommended updates you might want to consider adding to that list. ¢

Perfect Timing: As you change the clocks, make it a habit to change the timer on your home thermostat, as well as your television sets, digital recorders, sprinkler system, outdoor lighting, and other items on a timer.

Refreshed: Fall is a great time to change your home’s air filters, as you’ll be spending more time indoors throughout the winter. While you’re at it, replace fridge filters, furnace filters, the filter on the hood of your kitchen range, and check dryer vents.

Fired Up: It’s a good idea to inspect and clean your fireplace and chimney and check duct work.

Inventoried: If you didn’t do it last year, make this the year you videotape your home to catalog your possessions and make a clear inventory of items you would claim in the event of loss or damage.

2. 4. 6. 8.

Recharged: Check to make sure you have fresh batteries in everything you’d need in an emergency, including smoke detectors, flashlights, and radios.

Up-to-date: As you head into cold and flu season, it’s wise to clear out medicine cabinets and check the expiration dates of the medicines you keep. Expired? Dispose of them safely by following the FDA guidelines or bring them to one of the next San Diego County Sheriff Department’s Prescription Drug Take-Back programs.

Out Back: Aerating your lawn can keep it looking healthier and experts recommend doing so once a year. Use this time to check sprinkler heads and irrigation lines as well.

Defrosted: That extra hour of sleep might give you the energy to clean out your freezer and defrost it, if necessary, and even clean that oven.

Now that your house is in order, you can rest easy and wake refreshed to the morning that will greet you a little earlier tomorrow.

Operation Christmas Child by MICHELLE TREMBLAY

f you are looking to “give back” this holiday season, there is an organization just for you. Samaritan’s Purse, a national Christian organization, is making it their mission to not only bring joy to impoverished children all around the world, but to also enrich their lives by spreading the word of God. With the help of donations, this group sends shoeboxes to needy children filled with such items as toys, clothing, toiletries, and school supplies. Also, in an effort to bring faith into these children’s lives, every shoebox includes an educational book on Christianity that introduces the child to a discipleship program. This project is called “Operation Christmas Child,” and now, through its San Diego chapter, you too can give the gifts of joy, hope and faith to an impoverished child. Esperanza (Itzy) Haumschilt, the lead for San Diego’s Operation Christmas Child and a teacher at Valley Elementary School, explained how she became involved with the charity: “I have been packing (shoeboxes) for many years with my own children and with my students. I always love the joy of giving to a child and my best experience was when I went to the processing center in Orange County to witness the love of God through thousands and thousands of boxes,” said Itzy. “Every single one was unique and special. Tears came to my

eyes just to imagine little girls and boys in some of the most difficult situations. I became a year round volunteer and then the area coordinator for the best team in the world – North San Diego.” Like Itzy, anyone can become involved with the project either through volunteering or by donating a shoebox (along with $7 to cover shipping costs). “You can be a part of this amazing and simple project,” said Itzy. “It feels good to give. It’s truly a blessing to know that darkness turns into light for all these children with a simple shoebox full of hope and love. Get together with your family, church, or school and be a part of the most rewarding experience you will ever have.” With your donation, you will have the option to track your shoebox to its destination, and some lucky donors may even get to know the child to whom the box was delivered. “You may enclose a note to the child and a photo of yourself or your family and if you enclose your name and address the child may even write back,” explained Itzy. National Collection Week for Operation Christmas Child is November 12 -19, 2012, and the “drop off” centers are located throughout the county. For more information on getting involved or to find your nearest drop off center, please visit: www.samaritanspurse.org. ¢

the style, size, and configuration to suit our customers’ needs all at tremendous values,” explained Paul Rees of One Stop Furniture. They offer free in-store design consultations and can also provide in-home consultations with one of their professional designers. While some stores in the area have not been able to sustain their businesses over the past few years, One Stop Furniture & Patio is thriving and was voted Best Furniture Store in San Diego by 10 News Alist. The company started with one person ten years ago and has grown to a staff of 17 and is still expanding. Later this year they will be opening a brand new Design Center featuring window treatments, countertops and flooring while adding additional designer fabrics and brands. “We noticed that there was a massive void in San Diego. Although there were lots of furniture stores, you would just see the same product over and over again,” said Rees. “We offer quality products at affordable prices that you can’t find everywhere, in an inviting and friendly environment.” ¢

LOOK WHO IS WEARING BRACES Actual Patient wearing The MTM® No·Trace™

The MTM® No·Trace™ Developed by Dr. Ron Roncone in conjunction with Dentsply/GAC International, an orthodontic supply and manufacturing company, has solved these problems. They are placed on the inside of teeth, so they are not visible. They work very rapidly---6 weeks to 6 months.

Lingual Braces Over 60% of my practice is composed of adults ranging in age from 18 to 83. Why have they chosen to have their teeth straightened as adults? The most common reasons are: 1. Always wanted straight teeth but parents couldn’t afford treatment. 2. Don’t like their smile. 3. Their teeth are crooked. 4. Their teeth are wearing. 5. Gum problems due to crowding. 6) T.M.J. (Jaw Joint) problems causing headaches, neckaches, etc.
