23rd of march? not that long now! i get my extractions on the 21st. When i was little my baby teeth always touched edge to edge, and my front teeth were straight when they first grew in (the adult ones) and then got squished up, but it seems like my top jaw is narrow and my bottom one is pointy and also forward or too long im not sure which one, only a few years ago did i start to get self councious about how i looked but thats probably coz im a teenager ect. now though im starting to accept how i am, i hated my nose and my brother used to pick on me (in a loving way :S of course) but that sort of started getting to me and i got very depressed then i noticed my jaw aswell, i think i must have had a growth spurt to make it more apparent. My mothers teeth are like mine used to be, her top ones are the same as the bottom and touch edge to edge.
After going to the ortho i cant believe its not just crooked teeth, i have the hardest to correct thing! its just typical. a year ago i wouldnt have dreamed about posting a picture of me let alone a profile one, but now i know how others like to see lol i like to look at pictures so hopefully i can help someone else.
i hope our braces to the trick, although i can eat and speak just fine im sure our new bites will make everything so much easier!
its all so exciting!
CLAmom i have loads of questions to ask when i go back, although the next time i will see my ortho will be the day i get the braces! i hope everything goes perfectly with your treatment! im so happy that they are able to fix this type of problem without surgery for us! Your teeth sound how my mothers are hitting bottom and top at the same level i cant describle it but i think thats it. Her teeth are perfectly straight tho she didnt have braces but had a lot of milk teeth exracted.
