Arch in the beginning:

Arch after 2 months:

Beginning:

at 2 weeks:

4 weeks:

8 weeks!


here are some pics, sorry some are so big...couldn't fix. My mouth has gone through a lot of chages since Jan. My arch is rounding out and my canines are slowly moving down. I had a gap in between my front teeth last week that was pulled together by a very TIGHT elastic around my 2 front brackets--painful, but glad to see the gap go before my very eyes!

    Thanks!!! I am so excited, it really does make me think that one day I will have that smile that I have longed for!
    The pain has subsided now, had a little pain with eating that day and felt pretty miserable the day after, but it's been 4 days now and back to normal! My bite is so horrible I wonder just how he is going to fix it, but will have to wait til the rubber bands start this summer before I start thinking there's no hope. It's hard to describe..I can bite down on my molars now, and my over bite is worse, my top teeth cover almost to the bottom part of the lower brackets, and it's crooked...so although I can not see the whole bracket under my one front tooth, I can see pretty much the whole bracket under the other front tooth. wierd. I just don't know how it all pulls together???? It's like they are slanted?
    Lots of clicking on my lower teeth--lol, I know you know what I mean, like they are moving, and when you move your mouth sometimes, you can feel them click forward or click backwards.
    I am loving my white ligs again, that's
    the best part. I have had limited coffee, and if I do, I drank with a straw, and rinsed with water, then brush when I am done. I am a little psycho with brushing!!! I just hated how yukky they got and I am hoping to keep them as white as I can til I go back in April.
