New to boards & Pics of two month progress

#1 Post by njbeachbetty »

Hello everyone! This board has been a big help to me - and I enjoyed reading everyone's experiences and seeing such great progress.

Here's my story - My first orthodontic appointment was in December of 2005, I wore an expander for 8 months, and it's been two months since I got my ceramic braces on.

My wedding is in four weeks (4/28/07), in which I'll get my braces off for, and then invisalign.

My problems were that I had braces for four years as a child and now (at 27) I'm correcting a 9mm overjet (now down to 5mm) and an overbite on my upper teeth. Lowers are pretty straight. These problems were caused by wisdom teeth I waited too long to get extracted - and they moved my once perfect teeth. I hope invisalign can correct what's left of my problems, dispite some of the negative experiences I've read.
