I had elastics from my upper canines to my lower molars before but this time they're from my upper metal loops to my lower molars. It's awfully hard to put on. I'm kinda disappointed because originally he said that I would be done in september instead of my original debanding date in december. Now it looks like my earliest debanding date will be in november.



I think the IPR he did 6 weeks ago was done poorly. Now I have a chipped front tooth.

Before the shaving.

I still dont have that rounded arch. Do you think the elastics will help? The assistant said that I will be done very fast if I wear them religiously.

I don't have a totally rounded arch either and I was hoping that elastics help with that. My teeth are also flare out.

I was just gonna say that. It looks like the elastics are to correct her midline.
