ArchWired Cookbook? What do you guys think?

#1 Post by bbsadmin »

I've been thinking about this for a long time.

What if we made an ArchWired.com cookbook?

It might be hard copy, it might just be in electronic format. Who knows. For now, what do you think of the idea?

I still reckon a book covering all aspects of adult ortho treament/what to expect would be good too though, as well as what to eat!!


I'd vote for this idea too!
Case: Impacted canines, crowding & crossbite.
Treatment: SARPE 2004/10/6, RPE 2004/9/28 - 2005/1/31, w-arch until 2005/11/22, impacted canines extracted 2005/5/18.
Braces on: top 2005/6/2, bottom 2005/8/30.
Braces off: 2008/6/9.
Retainers, phase one: expanding Hawley retainer 24/7, bonded retainers on top & bottom.
Retainers, phase two: Hawley on top, bonded both top & bottom, positioner for night time use.

Sounds great to me. I'm always looking for new ideas on what to eat while I'm braced up.

I think a cookbook is fantastic as well as a book on general adult orthodontic treatment!

I like the cookbook idea! What a wonderful tool, especially for the first few weeks! We could all submit recipes via email and then have a book compiled! Great idea! :thumbsup:

Wow, what an overwhelmingly positive response!

OK, I'm going to work on this.

I think the best thing would be to have a form that you guys can fill in so everything I get is in the same format. I'm going to have my husband, "Mr. Database" make this for me some time in the next few weeks.

I'll let you know when it's ready to accept submissions.

I think this will be really fun and useful!
