It looks like those teeth are ready to be wired! And from what I've seen as far as wayward teeth go here on Archwired, you should see them coming in line soon thereafter. Good luck!
your top teeth look a lot like my bottom teeth did. i had coil springs to make room and then one by one the two teeth were brought foreward. i will warn you...PLEASE take something before the appointment or right after they put a bracket and move the teeth foreward. Mine moved very fast and it hurt....but once they were in place(seriously about an hour later) the pain wasnt so bad. i had problems with the brackets popping off due to all the pressure. but OH MAN WAS ALL OF IT WORTH IT. i seriously almost cried when i saw all of my teeth in line. it was soooo AWESOME!! make sure to keep posting pics!!

What a difference it will be once those laterals come into their right place. Which
will happen pretty fast I think. Not wanting to be difficult, but aren't the dates
wrong ? Starting October 2006 ?
Wow Stacey - there has been a lot of movement! So far, your ortho has been preparing the ground for the next step which I'm sure will go smoothly. You've got lots of room now for the laterals to slip into and that will happen quicker than you imagine.
Good luck - and keep posting the pix!!
There's some awesome improvement! I love seeing that even though it seems like it's going to take an eternity - there will eventually be some movement...slowly but surely. You're living proof!
And Karen...you have the CUTEST animations, I love them!
