What fantastic news, Denise!!!
Isn't it amazing how quickly powerchains work? I'm so glad your gap closed as quickly as it did and you are back to a beautiful smile!
Can't wait to see the pics!
Oh, and congrats to Josh that he's nearly done!

Yea!!! You've got great news. I can't wait to see pics of everything! I love the powerchains too. They hurt like crazy going on.. and then for a day or so but they do such good work. I wish I knew what I had going on w/my bottoms.. I've got some kind of double something.. no telling. I was so excited to get all that other stuff out I didn't ask..
Get some pics up!! I'll do mine today too!

Hooray! Continued vacation from elastics!
Sounds like a great quick appointment, and yes, I'm sure that powerchain will make itsself known over the next few days... but that means it's working!
Can't wait for the next update, and oh yeah... where are the pics???

Oh no! Powerchain pain!
I hope you start feeling better soon, having sore teeth can just throw your whole day off....
And your oatmeal sounds yummy! I love Craisins!

Denise you're uppers look fantastic! If I look closely at the pics I can see the triangles you are talking about, but as far as alignment goes, things look great.
I'm glad to hear your bite is feeling different - as long as it means better! But really, your progress is coming along so well, you must be thrilled!

Hi Denise
Good to hear that things are going so well for you.
You also struck a cord when you spoke about night-time pain with the powerchains. Similarly that was the only time in my brace journey when the pain woke me up. It's great though when the IPR gaps close but you really do feel it.
It sounds like everything is coming along nicely for you and your photos look great.
Regards
Joney

I remember that feeling when my teeth met, it was very strange and unfamiliar and it took a bit of getting used to, I was delighted. Congratulations to you.The biggest event since my last post is that I can now touch my lower centrals to my upper centrals if I angle my mouth just right. It's the strangest feeling. I never could have done that before with my massive overjet and overbite.
