Did poor "Fashion Braces" Cause Girls Death ...?

Re: Did poor "Fashion Braces" Cause Girls Death ...?

Chan 3 reporter last night attended the girl's funeral.....lots of tears, of course, as the family/friends poured coconut water on the outstretched hand of the girl just before cremation (a scene I don't think I ever recall seeing at stateside funerals). The reporter then says she's going to visit the clinic where the girl had the braces installed. As she's walking along what looks like the back stretches of a night market, she reports seeing the clinic ahead......a tall, long haired, short skirted, high heeled something standing in the doorway. The reporter inquires, Do you install braces here? The 'something' answers in a husky voice, No, no, we don't do that here....we fix people's hair here.
The reporter (a young 24-ish Christiana Amanpour) goes across the street and asks another vendor if the shop in question does braces. Oh sure, the guy says.....all the time.

Judging from what I saw on TV, the girls handing over large sums of cash for braces probably aren't the ones that need to worry. But I'd be worried about having anything installed in my mouth by the tall, long haired, short skirted, high heeled, husky voiced something or another.

Amazing what some people will do to themselves in the name of fashion. :shock:

Yeah Lee, but you gotta admit, she is a cutie. :D

Now if they would just ban those skin whiteners.....but I'm sure that would lead to armed insurrection...and castration of the authorities by angry mobs of females. :shock:

Yes pretty easy on the eyes, but would look much better without the teeth scaffolding in her mouth IMO.

Absolutely....those things wrapped around her nashers do absolutely nothing for her !
And her boyfriends tongue could get ripped to shreds on those braces....plus bits of food sticking inside....hardly a romantic proposition !
Theres nothing like a genuine Thai smile.....see how much better it is 8)

Sounds pretty convincing that this has not been done by an appoved / licenced orthodontist.

It will be a wake up call, the cuties HI5 sites will be flooded with this case.

But the old story sadly will be , this is knee jerk to a death, huge negative publicity, laws invoked BUT who is going to enforce them ?????

" Dob in a Fake Dentist" day to be held on the aniversary of this girls death. All sales will stop that day, just like Pantip Plaza and resume again the next coming days

It's all about status -- nothing to do with teeth at all.

It's last century's equivalent to gold necklaces and bracelets.

Look at me -- I have a lot of money to throw away. My teeth are fine, but all the rich hiso kids have braces, and so do I.
