#1 Post by Chiwawamom »

Ok...so I went in after work to get that DARN wire snipped that had been bothering me for over a week....and the girl did'nt know what I was in for and took my wire out and gave me a WHOLE brand new wire and adjustment......I didnt think much of it when she took of my wire because I asked her if I could change my ligs to AQUA for summer....I figured she was cutting my wire...but my ortho came by and said everything is looking good that things are moving fast.... thats wire my wire was hanging out the back so fast as I just had my last adjustment June 20th....so they said it was no problem doing it 3 weeks apart....I will come in again in 6 weeks.....Now I have a figure 8 on my right canine instead of the left.....Anyhoo.....WIERD....went in to have a wire clipped or ground down and had a full on adjustment.....OH YAH.....AQUA ligs make my teeth look YELLOW......YIKES!!!! What did I do? LOL!!!! They are SOOOOOO bright.im used to my gum colored Bubble gum and I thought I would go out on a limb and get soemthing funkier.....WELL....my teeth look like they havent been brushed in a while....I will post some pics.....

Glad to hear things are progressing well :) if your not too keen on the aqua ligs dont worry the colour will change slightly as they stain a little, or at least mine did. Aqua was one of the colours i quite liked, i going to miss my ligs :cry:

for the first time ever my archwire is poking me and needs a good clipping but I go in next week so I can hang in. I have just been using wax. For me it feels like these two months are moving so slow. The biggest thing they're trying to do is make room for my tooth to move forward and to get my crossbite better aligned.

I am so hoping that when I get my adjustment next week that they wire in that tooth so I can start seeing it move forward...one things for sure they're is not a significant gap for it to pull through!
