Finish line in sight! :D

#16 Post by buurin »

Another few months of being lazy, but this is not a time to be, because I have a debonding date! :D

April 23 is when my teeth will go naked!

For the last adjustment (4 weeks before yesterday) I got criss-crossing wire ties twisted ~3 times between teeth through the entire upper row, and power chains (per my ortho's speak) upper 6 to 6, lower 3 to 6 left and right (and maybe one more adjustments before that - I'm losing count :lol:) Yesterday's adjustment is simple crisscross ties underneath a "finishing" archwire that was put in new, and powerchains upper and lower that includes the second molars that got banded later. Those four (and the banded #1 molar IIRC) will get debanded first on April 14, when an impression for the retainer will be made.

I got to snap some pics for this final set of metal mouth apparatus before they're gone, for pics taken afterwards will be my "after" shots.

It may not be available right away because of the moderation they're doing there. Just check back later if you don't see it right away.

Any angle you guys want to see? :lol:
