Dr. Kuipers did a nice job getting my teeth into alignment. However, just two days after the braces were removed, my teeth had shifted dramatically; they certainly were not retained appropriately! I had very little information provided to me regarding retainer options / benefits & consequences of each type of retainer, and I feel that if I had been better informed, together, we could have made a concerted effort to reduce the likelihood that a year later, my teeth would still be crooked. I voiced my concerns to Dr. Kuipers, and he challenged them by stating his impression that "the treatment was a success." Additionally, he refused to take further action in order to recover the alignment that I had upon the removal of the braces. A word to those of you who are considering receiving services from this orthodontist - - ask as many questions as you can, and attempt to get as much information prior to braces removal. Once you have gone through the process of having braces, and you finally get them off, it really is very dissatisfying to still have crooked teeth!!
