Had braces for 2 years 5 months, would have been much quicker but for over half that time I was making little progress since at seven months, Ortho placed a thick square wire which stopped movement due to friction.
The reason why I got braces was to close up a gap that had opened from removal of lower central incisor from when I had braces when I was in my teens. I opted only to get work done on lower arch, the upper arch does protrude a bit leading to overjet but that doesn't bother me.
As for the lower arch the gap has closed but I can't help but think some more work could be done eg perhaps some further rotation on the three front incisors, I am not expecting 'perfection' if I had I would have had work done on the upper arch and I understand at the end of the day the shape of my teeth causes limitations on the end result.
But now that the opportunity is present I want to make the most of it.
What do you guys think should I go naked tooth or push my Ortho for more adjustments, he is quite keen to take of the braces and I have my next appt in a week to do so, but just wanted your opinions.
BEFORE and AFTER
..... thats a whole other story though), but I want to see if there are any specific areas of improvement that jump out at you guys.
