Klobird: I was so proud of all 3 of my babies. My daughters goal was to win a bike before she left elementary school.
Crazy4snow: Speaking of changes heres an lil update pic.
20 DAYS IN (NOTICE THE TOOTH THAT BEEN PULLED OUT AND IS NOW TOUCHING THE BOTTOM TEETH.)
DAY 1 IN BRACES (NOTICE THAT TOOTH WAY BEHIND THAT OVERJET TOOTH AND IS NOT TOUCHING THE BOTTOM ROW OF TEETH.)
So today is my day off and Im feeling pretty drained from this heat, not to mention my kids have a ball game today. I was just wondering what what will take place on my first adjustment. I know at some point I will have the luxury to wear powerchains. I really hope I get a stronger wire b/c Im becoming afraid to chew in fear of the wire breaking. I was looking at my daughters teeth and in just 3.5 months her teeth is so pretty but she has to keep them on for 26 months. Im thinking of getting pictures made or taking pictures and making a couple of layouts.
Wow! It's so exciting and encouraging to see how your teeth are moving into position so quickly! I can't wait until I can notice my teeth touching the way they're supposed to.
Congrats on the awesome progress already!
Thank you guys for the birthday wishes!!! You know the weirdest thing happened the other night. I was laying across my bed just clapping my teeth together when I realized how funny it felt to have some of my front teeth touch. I wonder in some cases do your teeth look worst before they look better? My first adjustment is June 28. Im looking forward to see whats the next step.
"in some cases do your teeth look worst before they look better?"
Absolutely! I found myself staring in the mirror a lot and saying "WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY TRYING TO DO IN THERE?!"
Everything comes together in the end though
Happy 1 month!! Nice progress so far.
Thanx LeahRuth for your responce. I guess Im over reacting a little lol.
Well today was my first adjustment I was excited but now Im in a little pain. I finally get a chance to sample the torture of power chains. Im not looking forward to getting those badboys.
June 28
1. powerchain to close gap on bottom
2. Heavier chain on bottom
3. Same chain on top (teeth needs to rotate more)
4. smaller ring
5. Scrapping of some build up and to think I thought my teeth were looking pretty clean
I love the play by play shots of your tooth movement. I can't wait until I can see my teeth moving! It also looks like your left front tooth is tucking in better. Congrats and they are looking good!
