Amazing progress!

Thanks!
NOTE: Ortho estimated 2 years of treatment.

That’s amazing! Your teeth look brilliant! Well done!

Thanks, hoping they come out early

Wow, you look great! I can't imagine you would need the full two years. Congrats!!!

They look great to me!!

That is incredible progress! I know you must be so pleased.

I expect your ortho will keep you braced for close to the two-year period, though, as both open bite (which you started with) and overjet (not overbite, which means the top teeth overlap the bottoms vertically) have a tendency to regress if you don't stay in braces and elastics long enough, or at least this is what I have heard/read.

It will all be worth it in the end!

Thanks! I'm very pleased yes, Every time I tell my ortho that I feel very close to taking to them off he laughs like he doesn't want to tell me, sorta like a tease haha!
