First Adjustment - Can you see a difference?

#1 Post by yo »

Ok, I got out my micrometer, and I think there was a tiny bit of movement since first getting braced on 2-1. What do you think?

I now have .018 wire on both top and bottom. Not too much discomfort at the moment!

Today 3-22

Brace day, 2-1
