hi there just read your story and took at a look at your progress pics wow they are really moving. Im seeing some real nice progress there you must be so happy to see the changes.

I agree with everyone else you have really teeth and once your debraced I bet they are going to look fantastic.

Thanks Jenny and Braces

I went in for my adjustment and I got LOTS done. New top wire, OUCH, and a powerchain---DOUBLE OUCH!

They also wired several more of my teeth and wow did that hurt too!

I haven't had much pain, but that powerchain was PAINFUL!

It seems odd to me that I have a band on my canine pulling it towards the back of my mouth, and a powerchain on the same tooth pulling it forward!?!!? But I know...trust the ortho

I went with a pearl color..so far no staining

Here is a picture

gotta love powerchains lol.. It takes about a week to get used to it and it won't hurt but I have noticed those with the chains are a little more sensitive and a lot more wobbly. Good luck and your teeth look great.

No kidding Katt,

I guess I always thought powerchains were "later" in the treatment!

My teeth feel like they are going to fall out at any minute

) But at least they don't hurt anymore!
