Hi and welcome!
Teeth move on average 1 mm a month ... which means some move faster and some move slower. Something to remember ... if your teeth looked good, you'd not need braces. Orthodontic treatment means your teeth are fine to look 'crazy' ... so hopefully you'll get used to it soon and realise that teeth with braces on them are expected to be out of alignment, gappy etc.
You mention you have some bad crowding ... this is the type of work that is corrected first, due to alignment being the first stage of orthodontics. This means you should see some great progress in the weeks ahead.
Remember to put wax on any brackets that rub and let your mouth toughen with the wax on and then you won't risk mouth sores. Also keep well hydrated as this will make it easier for your mouth to cope with your new hardware.
Good luck!![]()
