I don't think Phelps had an orthodontist. My kids were going through expanders and braces during the 2008 Olympics and every time he was interviewed one of them said something along the lines of: "He needs an expander! His jaw is too narrow! There isn't enough room for his tongue!"

This time they were saying, "He still didn't get braces?!"

It really is a shame...his mother is a school principal and she must have had excellent dental insurance. With all of her nurturing and support, I don't see how she overlooked this.
