Turn no more!!!

Well, I had a visit with the Ortho today...I DON'T HAVE TO TURN MY EXPANDER ANYMORE!!!

They were supposed to change my wires but decided to wait another four weeks because of sensitivity on my lower ones. Possibly in three months or so they'll take out the expander. All in all a good visit!

They're moving!!!

Here's a picture of my lowers after 6 weeks. Considerable change on front teeth when you compare it to the "3 week" pictures.

Movement!!!!

It really amazes me at what can happen in just 6 weeks with braces! I haven't paid much attention to teeth movement since I took the last pictures 3 weeks ago.

I can't believe it but the front bottom teeth have finally started forming an arch!!! They said I would start to notice and arch forming but acted like it would take much longer. I've been really paranoid about having braces at my age but seeing improvement like this really helps make me more confident in having them for another 29 months!!!
