Then I got even more fun thrown my way and got to have the big lip separator thing put back and, more glue going down the back of my throat, etc.
I asked the ortho how much longer I have in braces and he couldn't tell me. 12 months? 18 months?
![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
I am beginning to think that my teeth were just a whole lot worse than I ever thought they were. I am still in the first wire on the bottom after 7+ months! He told me I have 3 wires left on the bottom and two on top.
I am also beginning to think that rotations are very hard to overcome. Crowding is not so bad, but rotations take a while.
Does anyone else have any stories about rotated teeth and how long they took? My front bottom tooth was rotated almost 180.
Oh, yeah the repositioning is to help with leveling of my bottom teeth. My canines are way to low, so he lowered the brackets to pull them up. He also said my canine is rotated. Who knew?
I am also now starting to notice everyone's bottom teeth now. Like when I am watching TV. To be honest it was never a concern to me but now I realize how much they show when you talk.
