He was at home, alert and conversational with his family the evening before, and never awoke from his sleep, passing away peacefully at the age of 93.For Anders Lundstrom, becoming an orthodontist might have been bred in his bones. He was born on March 22, 1916, in Stockholm, the third of 4 children of Dr Axel F. Lundstrom (1875-1941) and Beth Cra-foord. His father achieved legendary status as a leader and innovator in the fledgling specialty of orthodontics, whereas his mother came from a Swedish family distinguished in medicine.
