4th adjustment yesterday

#1 Post by cece »

Time is really flying by since getting braced. My top teeth are looking great, they weren't really bad to start with though. I had one front tooth that was lower than the other and one of my upper 2's was a little turned in and my arch was more square than arched. I am so thrilled w/ the results that it makes me feel like I did the right thing :) b/c I was doubting my decision the first 3 weeks in :shock:

On the bottom, I have a missing tooth and lots of shifting so we are trying to get that back to make room for an implant. Last time I had a little spring/coil in the space. This time I have a tighter one plus a powerchain to close gaps that the doc created to move everything back over. Not too painful, just a little soreness on the bottom.

He says we may do elastics next time :P
