4th Appointment Update

This appointment was filled with lots of good news! I went to my appointment this morning and they changed my lower wire out for a stronger one. WHAT? I thought I had a super strong one in my mouth last time?? They want to really move my lower teeth down so they aren't sitting behind my upper teeth (look at picture below). Awesome!! My teeth are already sore and I love it!

They also said that they are going to reposition my brackets next appointment because if you've noticed, one of my upper central incisors is longer than the other and they are going to fix that! YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!. I can't wait!!! I am still in the Class II elastic configuration but I don't have a power chain anymore! Woohoo! No more worrying about staining!

I'm super excited for my appointment in 8 weeks!

Week 36

My next appointment is tomorrow morning and I can't wait! They will probably switch out my power chain and hopefully I won't have to wear these class II elastics for too much longer...

Here is a picture of my current teeth. Not much progress happening :(

Week 36

Week 35

My next appointment is next week! I'm so excited! I hope they say good news about my overbite progress. I no longer have to force my teeth back to bite down regularly, but my lower teeth are still behind my uppers when I bite down. My power chain is totally stained yellow so I'm looking forward to them changing that out. I also have 4 gaps on my lower right teeth!! So I'm sure I will get a chain there as well. I'll keep you updated!
