 == Temperature-sensitive materials == 

 Hi.  I'm no expert, but wile reviewing revent edits, I came across this change made on 18 April.  Part of the change removed some interesting material regarding temperature-sensitive materials.  The following is an excerpt of the removed/reworked content. 

 Modern orthodontics makes frequent use of nickel-titanium archwires and temperature-sensitive materials. When cold, the archwire is limp and flexible, easily threaded between brackets of any configuration. Once heated to body temperature, the archwire will stiffen and seek to retain its shape, creating constant light force on the teeth. 

 If this is accurate, could someone with more expertise than I integrate it back into the article?  Thanks.    

 == Ref style == 

 I've done a purely mechanical conversion of some external links into footnotes.  I was unable to proceed with  and  due to an error and a langauge barrier, respectivly. -   

 == Reorganize and reconsider this page == 

 I am an orthodontist and following the development of this page is difficult to understand if it can be of any use for anyone. 
 For sure is not useful for any orthodontist. Should we leave this page to laypeople and start something else? 
 By the way, the term braces is not used in scientific literature, where you can rather read ""orthodontic appliance"". 
 Orthodontic appliance is such a broad term that includes 50% of orthodontic knowledge...We can't put so many informations in this article. 
 I would ask the opinion of an expert wikipedian (not necessarily orthodontist). 
 If there is any orthodontist around please contact me.     
 :There is a somewhat more technical article called Orthodontics. —   
 :This article refers to the device as ""braces"" because of the guideline Use common names.  In general, the intended audience for an article is dependent on the scope of interest of the topic.  In this case, a general audience would be interested in braces, so it's worthwhile to give a ""low-tech"" overview to begin with.  If there is content of a more technical nature, it may be appropriate to provide such content in subsections positioned towards the end of the article, or possibly to create more specific sub-articles covering specific topics in greater detail, as per WP:SPINOUT.  Personally, as a curious lay-person, I agree, I would like to see quite a bit more technical content in this, or other orthodontic articles.  This article has quite a bit of room to expand and improve.  Unfortunately, short of a university medical library, I've found it fairly difficult to find content that can be added to this article where I can provide a verifiable source.  If anyone can provide me with facts and associated sources that they feel belong in this article, I'd be happy to help integrate them into Wikipedia. -   

 == The Pricing == 
 Under the section ""Treatment time and cost"" it lists various costs in several different countries. Are these prices all in USD, or what? Please elaborate on what currency it's in. Thanks    

 The pricing should be converted to an English currency such as pounds or dollars, as this is an English wikipedia.    

 == Pain == 

 You will not experience much pain on the day that you get your braces, but you will experience pain the day after and for a few days  —Preceding unsigned comment added by
