#1 Post by cbraces678 »

As of today I have had my braces 18 months. It was estimated 24 months, so I should only have 6 more to go. At my last adjustment he said “not much longer now”. We are tweaking my front teeth and my bite then I am done! I am currently wearing class 2 heavy elastics to reduce my overjet a touch more. It sounds like after this will be elastics to bring the bite closer together. Things line up well now bite wise, so at least that’s on track.
I have attached some progress photos. I am SO ready to get these things off once the last minor tweaks are done. I literally can’t wait!!

Hi with your treatment did you have any extractions? Also did you notice a change in your facial structure and side profile?
