I am so amazed at the change!!! Your whole face looks totally different! It is so amazing! If your canine moves as fast as the rest of your teeth then you'll have these guys off well before your big 21! You're gorgeous!

My lips seem bigger, and Im not afraid to smile anymore. I hope my chin is so "masculine" anymore. Thats from the protruded jaw. Yay thank you River :]]] Since you mentioned my face Ill include some full profile ones. I dont see face change all that much, but your opinion is better than mine!



Andd sorry for this scary picture, I look crazed! but ultimately this is the problem area and I cant wait to get the rest of my teeth braces so this can be fixed.

I have a tooth like that right now thats bracketed!! I have to keep it waxed because it sticks out so far.

From what I can tell though just from these pics that front tooth has moved a good bit!

how are things with the beau?

I am happy with the progress. I hope it keeps going.

Today is my birthday, and he has yet to call me. Things are sesame, excuse my language. Like and its not even arguing or anythin like that, its the fact that we dont talk in general. Ill try to get a hold of him and hes not around. Hes supposdly going to be back Wednesday according to his grandfather, hes going to get an ear full, and to be honest...Im not happy when hes not around. Im only happy when there is a constant flow of communication, and we dont have that. I think Im going to leave him soon. All I wanted for my birthday from his was "happy birthday babe" and I didnt even get that. I bought him such a great gift for his birthday last month. Its whatever.

I forgot to wish you happy birthday i ready that and totally forgot sorry!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I understand how you feel the good thing is, is that you are not in denial. Go with what makes you happy. I hope he has something planned or at least wishes you happy birthday!.

[cheyeaitsxchelsea]

Thanks :] Im the big 1-9!

Im not sure how I feel, but I know I love him very much. Always have. I mean this is a 2 plus year relationship but I dont know. Its crazy. Ill figure out what I have to do eventually.

Okay so Ive encountered a problem. My bottom arch has always had a gap in the middle of it, and the gap lined up with my tongue web allowing me to stick out my tongue with ease. I guess I never really put two and two together until my intitial ortho consult. After inspection of my teeth and loads of xrays he was like oh and i thought Id mention we found out you have a short lingual frenum. I knew I had a short tongue but it sticks out pretty normal...or I should say used to. Now that my alignment has changed sticking out my tongue hurts...bad. Like the web hurts and it kinda like clicks when I move it back and forth but only when i stick it out and move it. I believe my mom said that as a kid doctors wanted to clip my sister and I's tongue but I never spoke like I was tongue tied and m y tongue never hurt until the rearrangement of my teeth.

Should I look into tongue clipping? I want to, but Im not sure if its the best route?

Oh dear, I wish I could help you but i know nothing about this but it sounds painful
