hey guys.... wow after waiting nearly 2 months for my next adjustment it's just round the corner on October 3rd. I had to wait since August the 1st! Anyway just wanted to ask, do u guys feel happy when ure next adjustment is coming up? For whatever reason? I feel happy because I want more progress to happen in my teeth! I've been extremely busy with Ramadan! (for all of u who dont know i'm a muslim) and didn't realise time go by so quickly! lol my ramadan countdown sig is wrong by the way. it started last saturday
yes... i am so happy for another adjustment... partly just because i want to get my colors changed.. my last appt. was also on August 1, but i dont go back until October 9. im supposed to be getting my second molars bracketed so im not really sure im happy about that part, but whatever has to get done i might as well get it over with.
I always look forward to adjustments. It's a little milestone to help break things up plus I have a chance to ask my ortho if he will work on something that's bothering me. I need an update on my progress so will hopefully get that on Monday.

My first adjustment is the first week in November. My bottoms are the next week. I can't believe how anxious I am to get them! I'm happy I started the process, but ever appointment will hopefully bring me closer to a conclusion!

I wore braces (this time) for 1294 days or 3 years, 6 months and 17 days.
But who's counting?

Thanks for praying for me and thinking happy thoughts.
I am thrilled about my next adjustment!! I got braced Sept 7 and my first adjustment is Nov 1 so I still have about a month to go. I can already see the movement in my teeth and I think it is so neat!! They'll probably move even more by the time I go in for my adjustment so it will be really cool to see what the ortho thinks of my progress and what the next step is gonna be. I will NOT be excited to get my metal lowers placed (not sure when thats gonna happen) because I have to go through the spacers routine again .
I know its just about what 10 days away for me before I have my first adjustment can't wait to see whats going to happen as far as I know I'm getting spacers put in.

I went to my orthodontist three weeks ago and he said I'll have to wear bands for a month or two, then I'll get retained. My next appointment's in two weeks, and I can't wait.
I'm looking forward to my next one in a week. My ortho thought my bottom teeth would be straight by then, but they have quite a ways to go yet. Don't think I'll be getting a new wire any time soon!
