It's great to see your two posts and the progress your teeth have made. Your arches appear to be coming together really well ... and rounding out well. Good luck with the rest of your treatment!
Wow! that's a lot of progress Denise!
That's so awesome!
wow, they are looking great
Right on Denise! What kind of bracket do you have? It also looks like you have a thick wire how is it?
I'm not sure what kind of brackets these are actually, I always forget to ask them when I go in. The wire is pretty thick, and it's steel this time too. I don't know if I'm finally getting tougher, or what, because honestly this last adjustment i only had about 2 days of pain and sensitivity, and then I was fine. I'm really getting excited for these adjustments now. If I'm on track like they say I am, i should only have 3 more adjustments until my treatment is complete and I move on to retainers!
Thats awesome Denise! I sortof wish my adjustments were closer together. Its only at the end of April. I know it takes time for the teeth to move with the wires, but ah well. Congrats with your progress denise~!
Denise's brackets look like GAC's In-Ovation. This is a popular ceramic self ligating bracket which has had good research completed by independent groups. Lauralea your archwire will be a memory wire and it will keep working till your teeth are aligned correctly. These early thin archwires are the hardest working of the archwires, as they loosen the teeth and align then.
Huh thanks sunny, Could you comment on my new thread? Im not sure what do to. (gate opening on damon bracket)
