Yeah, you finally started your Braces Diary.

Congrats on making it to your recent 6 month anniversary. I hear ya on the ortho increasing the estimated time. I've just recently stopped asking â€œAre we there yetâ€

That's good news about Pesky2 Lucy. You would think that if it were ankylosed it wouldn't hurt because it wouldn't move. so I think something is happening YAY!

Glad to hear some good news about Pesky2

Take Care

Ankylosed - Not sure if I'm spelling it right, but it means stuck to the bone and won't move. (not sure if this is the proper description, but it's the only way I can explain it)

It's the dreaded thing that all of us impacted canine people worry about because when they do the exposure surgery and pull down on the tooth they don't know if it will move because it could be ankylosed.

Hope that makes sense. If anyone else can explain this better, please chime in.

Thanks
Shawnie

wow, i think we're a lot alike! (same age, both veggie, love cats, had nigh-perfect teeth until another medical issue ruined it all) and i'm also going to have to have full sets of braces - but for just ONE bloody canine!

*sigh* dem's the breaks, i guess.

so thanks so much for pointing me to your great story. i just hope my solo Pesky is like your Pesky1! i'll make sure to keep up on your progress! good luck!

best,
cm

Gosh Lucy, 36 hours with no sleep!

WOW, just pulled out some bone, didn't that hurt? I hope it helps Pesky 2 move now. Can you see the tooth on Pesky 2? Has that changed any since the exposure surgery?

Take Care,
Shawnie

Wow. That bone thing sounds kinda scary!

I hope it helps pesky2 get on the move though!

Truly amazing news Lucy

You need to go and celebrate!

Your Pesky 2 is giving me so much hope for one of my own impacted tooth!

I really hope that stubborn tooth of yours will move down very fast to join the rest of the team.

Your ortho will be so happy
