Week 58!

Well one year and a week has gone by and my 7th adjustment done. My ortho says my teeth are straight, my bite looks good, and my debanding date will depend on how strict I wear my Class 2 rubberbands! He said I am way ahead of schedule (my original debanding date was Nov 1, 2012). So basically the more I wear my rubberbands, the sooner my braces come off! Woohoo! I think he is just trying to fix my midline. Just a guess, I didn't ask. My next adjustment is in 6 weeks (I think they said 12, but they accidentally booked me for 6 :p)!

Remember my broken molar buildup and bracket? They said I didn't need that bracket since that tooth is straight and they didn't add any more molar build up! Everything is just staying the same (whew!).

Here are comparison pictures of my midline from Week 55 to Week 58. You can see that my lower midline has moved over to the left a little bit in the past 3 weeks! I'm going to make darn sure I wear my rubberbands 24/7! I want these braces OFF before my birthday in June!

Week 55. You can see my upper central incisor is
inline with my lower bracket.

Week 58 - My lower midline has moved over!
It's getting closer!
