Hi there

I am 20 and have recently started treatment for my overcrowded nashers. I have a 6mm underbite, 3mm crossbite and a deep bite so i will be having both my jaws broke hopefully :roll: in a couple of years to fix this.

I had 6 teeth removed on august 3rd prior to treatment on NHS which started with me getting the brackets and spacers fitted on the 25th of october, first wires and back brackets were fitted last friday.

I went for full metals and silver rubber thingys and to be honest they do not look to bad, i have seen big changes already and have felt no pain whatsoever, no sores anything !!

I could not feel my teeth for a couple of days so was living on soup but i am eating normally now.

Your posts have been super helpful, so look forward to posting my progress over the next 18-24 months !!

Ta Ta for now !!!

Kudos for taking the leap. If you're seeing progress this quick, imagine what the next few months will do. And I'll keep my fingers crossed for you on the jaw breaking!
