Hello!
My name is Autym, (pronounced like Autumn the season if you speak English ) and I got my braces on June 5th, 2018 (which makes it 44 days since I got them on). Is there anyone who got their braces near my date? If you did, how are things going? I currently just went for my first tightening Tuesday, and I also got my nighttime headgear. Let me know if you have headgear too!
Braces for 44 Days!

Re: Braces for 44 Days!
I got mine on March 6 (139 days ago) so still close ... kinda ? The third most recent time that I went in for a tightening I ended up getting rubber bands on both sides to fix my underbite, which now I only have to wear them on the right side. And last time I went in i got a power chain on my top row of teeth . So things are going pretty great for me, and I notice a huge difference!

That's amazing! Glad your braces have been going along smoothly.

Hello
I got mine on mid July! I have only upper ceramic at this point until bite opens, then will have lower ceramic. I will likely need rubber bands for overbite. I am amazed that at 2 weeks in, I am already seeing movement! That is motivating I will say I think this is going to be a great diet plan as I don't even want to mess with any between meal eating/snacking I have dropped around 4 pounds so far.... hey... I am looking at all the positives.

I got mine on June 7th!
Things are going pretty well. I just had my first adjustment last week, they basically just tightened everything up, and added a chain from one of my canines to my TAD. I've got more details and photos at the link in my sig

Re: Braces for 44 Days!
Wow glad to hear everyone is thinking about the positives! Its really amazing that progress has already been seen 2 weeks into treatment. I've definitely seen a gap forming where a canine has to come down on my own . Keep on going! I'm here right with you guys!

Super glad someone has headgear! I don't have my braces on yet, but the orthodontist said she would really like to try headgear with my case. So I'm on the fence... How is yours going so far?
