You are a trooper, Snowglobe! I'll bet your debraced pictures will be brilliant.

Wow, I'll say! My ortho has been joking he's pulling out all the stops in order to get my teeth to move as quickly as possible so I can get them off (because I whinge so much :P). A trooper you definitely are!

By the way, my ortho referred to me as the "forever case" yesterday..nice, huh?
:ThumbsDown:


I am 12 months into my 20 months sentence. Ortho said that I was ahead in the treatment the last two times I saw her BUT I won't hold my breath until she says "we are taking those off next time you come here" (well I still won't hold my breath at that point... :D )
She said it was all about tweaking now, however long that might take.
Total sentence 567 days. :)

I don't know about everyone but my daughter was told she'll be debanded in September last month so has about 5 months of tweaking and refining.
