6 Month Pictures

#1 Post by 38Illinois »

Here are my 1st week, 3 month, and 6 month pictures. You can see the progress that the elastics has done to my open bite. In the week 1 picture, I have my bite close as much as I could.

Also I have posted this question without any response so I hope someone will comment. I have a few teeth that I can see wiggle slightly in the mirror. Is this normal? Has anyone else noticed this? This is worrying me. Thanks!

I'm not sure if it's normal or not, but my front teeth were looser than the Ortho wanted when I went in for an adjustment. He checked them by Xray at my next few visits and they are fine now. So, maybe depending on how far the tooth has to move, it could be normal.
