When did you notice change?

[swisscat]

No major change yet, it's been 3 weeks. I feel that some of my teeth have slightly moved, but nothing major. I guess I will have to be patient, and stop staring at them all the time

I saw tiny changes after the first day. (only because I took a picture, haha!) It took about 5 days for more noticeable changes (and at that point, my boyfriend noticed them too). After a week, my upper central incisors, which were slightly overlapping, didn't overlap anymore.

I've seen changes ever since I put them on to be honest. My two upper incisives were really appart and the first day with braces the closed their gap. I got my braces a month ago and I've seen a lot of changes happening actually, one of my teeth is getting even more crooked but the tooth by it's side is getting way straighter XD It's kind of funny.

Currently I had them on for about a month and a half and I'm starting to notice that my arch wire is no longer pressing against a protruding tooth I had.

Literally in a few days my bottom teeth got straighter and wire wasn't as zigzagy as when we had just put braces on.
I am on a week4 now and see a lot of changes, my teeth moved forward a lot and gaps increased between them, i can feel it when i brush with inter-dermal brushes.

Almost 3 weeks in and nothing that my eyes can see, pretty much what I was expecting

August 19, Damon braces put on top teeth where I had spacing between teeth 7 and 8 and 9 and 10. The spacing between 7 and 8 has closed rather quickly. The teeth are not completely touching but I anticipate it will close very soon. However, we expect that I will have black spacing at the top of the teeth, so it will be interesting to see how just how much. There is some closure between 9 and 10 but the gap was larger and it seems it will take a while longer to close.

Hello. I'm on my second month now (I started at the end of December) and I can indeed see difference! a quick rundown: I have a big gap between my front teeth on the upper jaw and few misplaced teeth on the lower jaw. I can see that my lower jaw is almost fixed and I'm amazed! the misplaced teeth even tho they weren't really in a bad situation they took their proper places now except for my canine which was badly rotated and leaning back. It was difficult for my ortho to place the band on that canine but he was able to band it this month which indeed means it's moving. As for my upper jaw, the gap shrunk a tiny little bit which really makes me very happy because that was my main problem. I advise you to take a photo or two every month and just compare them together to help yourself notice the difference and please remember not everybody will see quick results. I wish you the best of luck <3

After the first 2 weeks of the flexible wire I noticed that my teeth were a little straighter. Then after about a month of power-chains I noticed that the gaps closing. So, for me at least, change comes in 2-4 week intervals.

So I have ceramic braces with 5 brackets either loose or missing. (Not my fault, bad bonding job) and I feel like I'm already noticing a change and it's been 2 weeks. My bottom row of teeth (which are all still bonded) seem to be a little more straight. Slightly. I took some before pictures without braces but I lost them so I can't tell for sure, but it feels like the open bite has closed a tiny bit and my teeth are a bit straighter. Having ceramic alone means progress is a little slower, but with loose and missing brackets I expected to see nothing at all. I'm really excited. I can't wait until my next appointment in March.
