my gaps have closed half way!
everyone at the doctors office seemed surprised by my progress.
What is wrong with my teeth?
One assistant told me that my teeth are all very wobbly that she
was actually scared to put in a new wire.
My teeth are not in such a good shape. Could that be the reason why
my teeth are moving so fast?

You have not said how long u have been in braces...
Everybody's teeth moves at different paces. When you said your teeth are "not in such a good shape", u mean...? Is it your teeth or your gums? Did u see a dentist/perio to check on your gum condition before putting braces? Maybe u shd have a check up on your gums?

Hope things turn out well for u!

Be happy your gaps are closing, Payoki, I wish my gaps closed as quickly!

I had my extractions a year ago; one gap is still half a tooth wide. With scheduled debanding a month and a half away and still such a gap, methinks my going-naked-day will be postponed

.

So embrace your teeth's responsiveness, I say
