Been a while since ive been on here but though this is the best place for good quality advice!!! well here goes...
I had my barces put on on 05th of December and they are already straight, i have quite a few gaps because I had 4 extractions, so I'm geussing that after my second adjustment these will close (correct me if im wrong), but I am wondering if I am moving pretty quick or this is normal??? Im hoping to only have them on for 18 months, what do you think????
I agree with KK. And closing 4 extraction gaps should take some time. 18 months sounds pretty quick. Remember after the teeth are straight next comes the alignment top and bottom and adjusting the bite. Relax.

Yeah I agree, but my gaps are pretty much closed, its just that they have all spread, it just seems all pretty quick, I was just wondering if anyone else has been in the same situation.... I will speak to my ortho when I go, just was curious. I am very relaxed thank you!
