Hey,
I noticed that as my teeth straighten and move that the last bracket is connected to my second molar and skips the first one. So, this is causing all my teeth to move (as it should) except the first molars. I have only had my braces for 4-5 months so I am wondering if they will add a bracket to the first molar to bring them into alignment with the other back teeth? Maybe later in the treatment or something?
I won't be able to ask my ortho about this until the end of the month and was curious.
Thanks!
KN
