Your teeth look beautiful! What a transformation already! I think the shape is OK. They are big and evenly sized.

Funny I have the same hidden lateral like you do (click www for pics). I got a spring to open up more space and it is working! My lateral is conncted by a rubber band just like yours is. Maybe you will get a spring too? My ortho said there will be no extractions needed. So apparantly it is possible to wedge apart the neighboring teeth.

I am jelous :D I can't wait until they attach an archwire to my lateral to move it but that is still a long way away since my journey just started two weeks ago. Just like you on my left side I have lateral that is set back and right now I have a bracket on it but no lig or archwire. That is some wonderful progress and you are defeniatly on your way :wink:

Hi!

Congrats on all that movement its absolutely brilliant in such a short space of time.... :D

I've got the same problem as what you had but not quite as bad as what yours were.. You can see it by clicking on my WWW!!! I'm having my second adjust on 9th June to close up my extraction gaps.. It would be nice if they would think about attaching something like what you had to yours to try and bring them into line but I think I may have to wait til the next adjustment before that happens...
