My ortho just told me that I have my finishing wires on both top and bottom! That is sooo exciting to hear, but at the same time I am a little scared because I want to be happy with my treatment. My teeth look straight, but my bite doesn't feel right. My bite feels perfect on the right side, but on the left it feels as if that side is higher. I am wearing rubberbands at night and I hope this will be sufficient to correct my bite. I am on month 15 of 24 so I have another 9 months left of my estimated
Today is my one year anniversary. I can't believe that I am half way done already.... 12 months down 12 more months to go. The journey of having braces so far has been so worth it to me. I am not done yet, but I have not regretted my decision yet nor I think I will.

Yesterday, July 29 2010 was my fourth adjusmtent. I was looking forward to my appointment 'cause I wanted to see what part of my treatment came next.
