I have officially had my braces on for a year. I can't believe it has gone by so fast. I have seen tons of progress, and can't wait to see what the finished product will be! I have trouble taking pictures of my teeth, but I am getting my "finishing x-rays" done at my next adjustment in May, so I will post progress pics then. I have been in class 2 elastics with an upside down triangle elastic as well 24/7 for the past 7 months, and they have made such a difference. There have been some days when I just want to rip these things off, but I try to control my urges.

I only have around 6 months left (hopefully). Here's to the next part of my treatment going by as fast as the first part did!!

wow , an aniversary ..... great to stop sometimes and evaluate just how far things have progressed.

congrats

Congrats mine was not too long ago either! I am so used to the braces now that it will be weird to not have them... I am thinking another 6 months tops and I will be out of em!

awesome. My year anniversary is coming up too and it went by so fast. I have about another 8-12 months to go on my treatment time. I am going to go more with the 12 though since I still have some work to do. But all in all I think i'm doing very well.
