Drazda, that is incredible progress! You must be so pleased! Your before picture is quite similar to my current situation - I have the little concave thingy going on at the back of my arch, which is something I am desperate to get rid of. I am so happy to see that yours is gone, and just after three months! Thats really incredible, and really encouraging to see.
This is my top arch at the moment:
I might also add that you have just gorgeous teeth, they look really healthy and nicely shaped. Eeeek! I'm getting so excited to start my treatment just looking at your pictures!
Thanks kiwi!! Will- it's too soon to say if I will take them off sooner... most likely not since my ortho wants to expand my arches a lot more. Samantha, that concave thing really bothered me too, I'm sure yours will shape up really quickly too!
OMG, Drazda....absolutely AMAZING progress. and after only 3 months. unbelievable . your teeth look great. i can't imagine you needing to be in braces for another 21 months. do you have traditional metal braces, or the self-ligating ones?
