w000 I finally got my camera back! Look at the lovely progress!
Day 1

3 months, 1 week - My front teeth are almost separated!

Look at all that new room! And notice how far my front tooth has moved back? It's not nearly sticking out as far as it was!

As you can see, the extractions and springs are working wonderfully. I have new gaps between the upper cuspids, but not the lowers. I also have gaps between my molars now too!
Overall, my front teeth have been pretty sore lately, and I got new springs at my adjustment yesterday, so my molars and cuspids have been pretty sore today and yesterday too.
Only downside.... I have a canker sore the size of Timbuktu where my right lower molar band is. I've had wax on it 24/7 for the last 3 weeks but it doesn't seem to be getting any better.
