Thanks Clo!

It does sound like we have similar problems. I read your other post. My understanding from my OS and dentist, is that trying to close an open bite will almost never result in stable results, as the braces are literally prying the teeth out of the socket and when braces come off, they will retract back to their old position. This certainly depends on how open the bite is.

Keep me posted in how it goes with your treatment!
