Re: Time between adjustments?
I go every 4 weeks. Each time I get new ligs.vincent168 wrote:Also want to ask you guys if you know what your ortho does each appointment when they are montly?
My ortho tends to recall me every 2 weeks to change the write for both or sometimes 1 arch only
The ligatures gets changed every time, but I am just wondering, if I get recalled every 2 months and sometimes the wire doesn't even get changed, does it mean people that get recalled every month doesn't get the wire changed also? Just the ligatures?
Up until my June appointment, I got new wires each time too. The last time I got a new wire on the lower arch but not upper. I go back next Thursday.

Thanks everybody. I have seen a lot of movement in the 6 weeks I have had them on, I am just anxious to see how we are progressing against plan.

I usually go in every 4-8 weeks.
