Not to be a pest, but I really think it's worth checking out OSU BEFORE the braces come off. May help, may not, but I do think it would be worthwhile for you.

Good luck with however things turn out -- even if you're not happy today, someday will come if you're determined!

Oh yeah. I know Ill be getting braces again in life. Ive actually heard great things from OSU, and from people who have gone to OSU for treatment. I talked to one of the doctors. Im not too worried. I have to get a consult before the actual retainers anyway. :]

Tomorrow is the big day. Im not happy with the results right now, and thats to be expected. The left lateral incisor is still up in the gum, and needs to be lowered, canine is obviously not down, and then the problems on the lower arch. I have work in store for me in the future. Im not happy with the gums of my front teeth. They look wonky and not rounded. Le sigh, maybe Im having a bad day or something. I keep picking out small details.

Picture time in just a second!

Hi Chelsea,

Just wanted to say I've followed your story and am so sorry to hear about all that you've gone through. Good luck with your de-bracing - sorry it has to be so soon. Good luck getting it all resolved in the future. I'm sure you eventually will.

Your recent photos do show some progress, so if you can retain that at least things aren't going backwards. 8)

Its been a longggg time!

So heres some updates. Going without a retainer, sucks. Buuut I was told I would never get a crossbite again, and my canine should come down in six to ten months. No luck yet. My wisdoms are rearing their ugly head. Ouch. I wish I had retainers because I do notice some shifting and its visible. Maybe Ill get braces again who knows.

I miss being on the forums a bunch! Ill try and catch up with your stories soon!

Picturessss. :]

i've said it before and I'll say it again you are beautiful!!! I think your teeth look great, do you feel a tad more confident though? I surely do hope that when the time is right you will be braced again and complete this wonderful journey. :) we miss you on the forums ;(

Thank you :]

I do feel more confident. A lot more. I smile a lot more too! I wish I had a broader hollywood smile but my mouth is really small but Im fine with that. There are always flaws people cant fully change.

For the first time in my life I was told I had really nice teeth! Ermm, my missing canine sucks. Like if I smile too big, but I cant help it. Not right now. Maybe Ill get braces again if not Im fine with it. I would like my wisdom teeth taken out soon.

I miss you guys too!
