Your teeth look amazing. Will you please do me a favor? Always give the biggest smile everyday because you deserve it! I have a big smile now and I'm still in braces lol
Lucy, they look fab! Who'd ever guess that P1 and P2 had been in hiding all those years?
Great news about the new builder too. Hopefully you'll have a nice new bathroom in time for Christmas.
Congratulations Lucy! Your teeth look great. You are so lucky that Pesky1 and Pesky2 moved into their rightful spot, and they look so good too.
Laverne is in position now, but we are still waiting on Shirley to move. Had a final surgery a month ago on Shirley, so this is the last ditch effort to get her to move. It'll be two years tomorrow since I got braced, so I think you are fortunate to get two impacted canines to move at what to me now seems quick. (although I'm sure it didn't seem quick to you at the time)
Best of luck to you, Shawnie

Lucy.
I am SO happy for you. Your teeth look absolutely gorgeous! Your two Peskys look PERFECT! I know it was a long journey but I'm sure you are so glad you did it.
