Here you go:

I'm actually not very happy with them. The front tooth on the left, yeah that's totally parallel to the one next to it. The tooth next to it is angled too. I still have an overjet so instead of an Essix retainer like I was supposed to get I'm having to get a Hawley. I didn't have an overjet from about the end of my first month until December and then suddenly got one when my ortho was tinkering. Good news is the gap between the canine on the left and the tooth to the right is closing since being debraced.

Anyway do they look as bad as I think? Please tell me I'm just being over critical.

Thanks!

Actually I should have written before that the front tooth ISN'T parallel to the one next to it.

They are great, really. Great shape and lovely result! I know that after all that time in braces we come to see every minor detail in our teeth but yours look lovely, I will be thrilled if I have such results! Congrats :) !

Ditto on all the above comments. I think they look good

What were your teeth like to begin with? I think a trip down memory lane might help you decide if you are being too critical.

I am itching to see my teeth straighten out cause right now they are highly overcrowded

I don't know specifically but big enough that it's annoying to me and not perfect. Apparently it's being fixed with my Hawley retainer, which is uber annoying BTW.
