Treatment Stats!

Braces sentence: 3-4 years initially, already been through 2 years and 4 months!

How many teeth extracted? over the course of my life 11 teeth pulled! :shock: I had my first baby tooth pulled (it wouldn't fall out!) 3 teeth pulled when I was 7 because of my small mouth, 6 when I had surgery to expose 2 impacted canines (2 baby canines, 2 lower permanent teeth because I'm missing my upper laterals, and 2 baby teeth on bottom!) and 1 baby bicuspid on the top as it was impacted! WOW! :roll:

I'm only 16 years old!

I have all metal brackets and black ligs and powerchains! I love black! :)
