($5) sounds awfully cheap. Did you have to go to a oral surgeon for that?
As far as the movement of your teeth, your ortho should tell you different option of treatments if there are any choice for you to choose. If not , you can always ask..

both my parents are nurses so we have great insurance even though it doesnt cover braces but when they close the gaps will my teeth be gapped?

Is the 1st bicuspid the one in front or the back? I had the back ones removed though it seems to me it would have made more sense to remove the front ones.

They told me that I was going to get posts (screws/taps?) put in to anchor the chains for closing the gap.

The extractions were my favorite part of the whole process so far. They twilighted me

which is always fun plus I got vicodin
