Hi

I went for my 4th adjustment yesterday, and my ortho said she is shocked at how fast my teeth are moving (i just hope i can have them off before i start uni in sep)

So, she put this second wire across my top arch which looks like a criss cross, does anyone know what that does??

also, i have an elastic now on my left side, she said it was to straighten out my midline, i thought elastics were used to sort out bites not midlines? Ive had 2 pesky hooks added into my arches for the elastics as well ohhhh what fun!

Sorry i would of asked my ortho these questions but i kind of ran out of there so i could get to the beach earlier to enjoy the weather!

pic is added below with new blue ligs

Hope everyone is well

Yeh, i think the blue is growing on me, finally my ortho had a funky colour for once!

Yep i sure did have IPR done so it makes sense, that she doesnt want to gaps to open up again after all the work the powerchains did.

Thanks, meryaten and KK once again for coming to my rescue with advice.

I can't believe ive had them on for nearly 6 months

Thanks again

Amy x :D
