5 months progress w/pics and good news!
Posted: Sun Aug 20, 2006 8:58 am
I've been quite busy these past few months, but I'm finally getting around to posting some progress pics. Just to recap, I got my uppers on 3/5/06 and lowers 3/15/06 with an initial estimated treatment time of 12-14 months. I had some pretty bad crowding on my lower teeth, and some minor crowding on the upper teeth.
I have to say, the past few months have really flown by. The entire treatment so far has gone far better than I could have ever hoped. "Recovery" after adjustments has been pretty minor -- usually just a couple days of eating soft food. And for the really great news, my orthodontist says she can finish by the end of the year -- the best Christmas gift ever.
Anyway, here are the pics taken on 3/15/06:


And now today (8/20/06):


The really noticable change has been in the lowers. I feel like my molars have moved around a bit on the uppers, but you really can't tell from the pictures.
Only 4 months to go!
