I think the quick progress has everything to do with the extractions. Teeth move faster if there aren't as many barriers. So if you have no extractions (like me) your progress will be slower because more teeth have to move out of each others way instead of being able to move into gaps. Even so, that is some amazing progress. I bet you can't believe your own mouth when you look in the mirror!

Isn't it so exciting! I love to watch major progress. This board gives us such an opportunity!!

Damons are fantastic, Damon's process is fast! Click on the link below to see my Damon speed (if you want).

In my case and in angel_guitar's case we're both HUGE fans of Damons!! She used my orho's promo for Damons and she lives around the world for me.
