Hey all, my life is still pretty busy but I get on here whenever I can remember! So yesterday I had another ortho appointment. Currently I am one wire away on both my top and bottom arches from my ideal archwire..which is rectangular. ew. Apparently it will help with my overjet and torque and move my bone around. I asked the ortho for a timeline ( considering I have a wedding to plan for soon!!) and he said at my next appointment (on April 8th) if my teeth have moved where he wants them, I will...

I have not visited you guys in so long! I am sooo sorry. Things have been CRAZY in my life and I need not scare you to death with the details! SO I believe I am in month numbero 7 of metal braces!

My teeth are nearly perfect!! I am sorry I don't have any pictures to supply you with but I will try to get on that when I get a chance. Some things that have happened in the past five months concerning my teeth:

OK so it's been a week or two since my first adjustment appointment but ALOT of things have been going on. I got an Assistant Manager position so I've been working full time and nights.

My very 1st archwire switch is this Thursday and I thought I would make a blog to tell/show you guys what I'm looking to have improved with new wires!

Chime in if you see some things I don't! Here goes!


Upper Arch- I am really impressed with the movement that has happened in just two and a half months!...

PICS** Alright! So its been a little past two months on my upper braces and almost 1 whole month on the lowers. Here's a picture update! As for details, M next appointment is July 16th for an archwire adjustment. My uppers are really straightening out!! Let me know what you think! M bottoms still have a long way to go in pulling my premolar up but there's improvement!
