shell curl

That statement should include the additional provision; ...up until the turtle is about a year old and the shell has hardened. Once hardened, a vet can utilize stabilizers/braces (like braces on teeth) to help restore the shell's natural shape and distancing of the carapace to the plastron.

WOW does this actually work?

any idea of the cost???

no pics hu?

I'd hate to think of the cost. I'd much rather find a local veterinary college and have them treat the turtle as a project. Students tend to be gentler and many certified vet instructors beats a single vet any day.
I gleaned this info from a Chelonian Veterinary site.
