Problem: Article: Braces are the most common and effective way to treat overbites, especially in children. Created by attaching strong wires to small metal brackets, braces apply constant pressure to your teeth, forcing them to realign over a period of several months. Price and duration are determined by the severity of the overbite, but expect to pay between $3500 and $5000 for treatment lasting between 18 months and 3 years. Be aware that, in many cases, insurance covers braces for children but not adults. In less severe cases, an overbite can be corrected through the use of a transparent alignment device. For this method, the teeth are scanned and a 3D mold is created to fit over them. Though easy to conceal and less invasive, transparent aligners can be incredibly expensive, sometimes costing more than normal braces. For an individual estimate, ask your dentist about aligner options from companies like Invisalign and ClearCorrect. In some cases, especially when dealing with children who are still growing, overbite can be fixed using traditional wire retainers. These require less maintenance than braces and are far less expensive, typically costing between $500 and $1000. Though more noticeable than transparent aligners, they can be easily removed if necessary. In most cases, retainers are also used to keep teeth in place after removing braces.
Summary: Get braces. Ask about transparent aligners. Try traditional wire retainers.

Problem: Article: Your parents may not mind if you build a fort in your bedroom, but they may not be happy if you build a fort in their living room. Ask your parents if you can use and move the chairs, blankets, and pillows to build a fort. Try to use a room that already has the basics for your fort in it, such as chairs and a sofa. This way, you won't have to move furniture around that much. This includes the seat and the back cushions. You may find lots of treasures under these cushions. See if there are any worth saving (such as money and toys) and store them in a box. Discard gross items, such as trash and crumbs. No fort is complete without a treasure box. Take a cushion and place it on the seat of the sofa. Lean it against the armrest, so that the side you sit on is touching the armrest. The edge of the cushion should be touching the backrest of the sofa. If you are using regular pillows instead, put two pillows on each armrest. You want the pillows to reach the top of the sofa, so you may need more pillows. Keep stacking pillows until they are even with the top of the sofa. If you have extra cushions, you can stand them on the edge of the couch, between the two armrests. Make sure that the narrow ends of the blanket are covering the cushions, and the long edge is covering the top of the backrest. Tug on the ends so that the blanket is stretched across the top of your fort. Something light, such as a bed sheet will work the best, because it will be less likely to make your fort cave in. Blankets and comforters are thick and will make your fort nice and dark inside because they block out light. They are also heavy, however, and may cause your fort to cave in. You can crawl into your fort now, or you can make it even bigger by using more furniture and pillows. Push two chairs in front of the sofa and turn them so that they face each other. Lean more pillows against the legs of the chairs, and drape a bed sheet over the top of the chairs. For more ideas, read the part about building a fort around chairs.
Summary: Ask your parents if you can build a fort. Find a suitable room to structure your fort in. Take cushions off the sofa. Use the seat cushions to make some walls. Drape a blanket over the cushions and sofa. Think about expanding your fort.

Problem: Article: Just like paintings, vinyl sleeves that are kept in the sun will fade and crack over time. To keep the cover art looking vibrant and beautiful, store your records in a shady room away from windows and direct sunlight. Remember: even if you have no front facing vinyls, the sunlight can still affect the edges of your record cases. When exposed to extreme heat, vinyl records can melt and warp around the edges, making them unplayable. When exposed to extreme cold, your records will become brittle, making them easy to break. If possible, keep your records at just below room temperature, or 50F (10C), for best results. If your records are exposed to extreme cold, slowly increase the temperature over a period of many hours. Moving suddenly from cold to hot may cause unwanted condensation, ruining the album cover. Avoid areas that are extremely humid or prone to leaks as they can cause your vinyls to develop mold or mildew. Unless they are sealed and well-insulated, avoid basements, attics, sheds, garages, and similar areas. If possible, store your records in a room with 35% humidity, the amount recommended by professional archivists. Dust is the primary culprit behind dirty and ruined records. As such, do not store your vinyls in seldom frequented areas exposed to the open air. Instead, make sure your albums are loosely packed together so that only the cardboard edges are exposed to dust. For optimal results, expect to dust the edges of your records about once a week.
Summary: Keep your records away from sunlight. Avoid extremely hot or cold areas. Stay away from extremely humid rooms. Avoid open, dusty areas.

Problem: Article: To breed your female dog with a male dog, you will need to find her a suitable mate. Look for a male dog of the same breed who is healthy and has no genetic faults or issues. You should meet with the male dog's owner beforehand or with the breeder and discuss the dog's health and medical history. You should also confirm the male dog's age. Most breeds should mate when they are between one year to seven years old. Make sure you talk with your vet before you mate your female dog with a male dog. Your vet should clear your dog of any health issues or problems before you start the breeding process. Often, male dogs do better when they mate with a female dog on their territory or home area. You may discuss bringing your female dog to the male dog at the ideal breeding time with the male dog's owner. Set a mating date based on your female dog's heat cycle so the mating occurs when she is most fertile. Do not mate your dog on her first heat cycle. Wait until she has had one to two heat cycles to mate her. This will ensure she is healthy enough for mating. You may also arrange for two matings between the dogs, twenty-four or forty-eight hours apart. This can help to increase the likelihood of your dog getting pregnant. Once the breeding date is set, you should bring the female dog to the male dog in a stress-free environment. The male dog's owner should set up a space that is clean and open for the breeding. If the female dog is in the right stage of her heat cycle, she should warm up to the male dog pretty quickly. She will show signs of attraction, and if the male dog follows suit, the breeding should occur rather naturally. If the mating is not successful, you may ask the male dog's owner about next steps. Professional breeders may offer a free service or mating session next time to make up for the failed breeding.
Summary:
Locate a suitable male dog for breeding. Bring the female dog to the male dog at the right time. Create a stress-free environment for the breeding.
