waiting....

I am waiting due to the fact that my top left side is up, I don`t know how to explain, you can see from the pictures that my mouth is not straight, the entire left side is up, because of the canine, I guess...and elastics
So, on the July 20, I had app to remove the top braces with no luck:( When I smile you can see that half of the arcade is up, and the other half down, I think that the elastics are also to blame, because they puled the right side down.
Anyway on the August 23 I have another app for retainer, hope that it will be ok until then.
kisses everybody!




Please if u have any suggestion, if u think that I am overreacting with the up and down arcade, or if I am right, let me know :) thanks

My progress :D

Hello everybody,

I went to Anca`s office on July 5, exactly in week 19 since I have top braces and everything looks just fine. I have appointment for bonded retainer on July 19, but only if my canine, lateral and frontal incisor go down a little bit, because now the wire makes a loop (wave) and it`s not perfectly straight.
About the elastic as you will see, now I wear 2 small ones, one on the top of the other, to pull the 3 teeth I mentioned before.
So, if on July 19 maybe I will have my top braces off, only after 5 months:) the bottom one remains to fix my left second premolar, I don`t have now pictures, but for future posts I will make some.
I have to mention that the treatment is followed by bonded retainer, which I have to wear for unlimited time.
Here are the pictures


Have a beautiful summer,
kisses M

Week 17, and I am almost done!

I had beautiful days, but also little problems with my dogs health and now I am just grateful that everything turned out to be OK. I was at the seaside, great weather, nice and relaxing sun therapy.
Today I had ortho app, Anca changed my top and bottom wire with 16/22 rectangular, new powerchain on the lowers, and new white ligatures with one coral on my lateral incisor, to mark the fact that I finally have my tooth in his normal place.
My top arcade it is almost perfect, my bite it s ok, Anca said I would probably keep my top brackets for 1 month, but only if I no longer need to wear elastics, now I am wearing only 1 elastic from my top canine to the opposite side bottom canine.
Also, my middle line is definitely improved.





I have started to smile with my hole mouth, I am more confident, and truly happy with the result.
Until next time, all the best,
M

I am in pain!!! Week 14 update top braces

Yesterday I saw Anca, and she removed the spring I had on my top braces, and now I`m in the process of my lateral incisor to move in front with the others teeth, and it`s pretty painful until now, I took some panadol, and hope to feel better.
For the lower teeth I don`t have new news, except that they also move, even if u cannot see the actual improvement, I marked the photo with red line (you barely can notice it :))) sorry) to highlight that my top central incisor now touches the bottom canine, due to the spring I had on top.
I also received blue fake filling on my bottom 2nd molar, so that my maxilla and mandible can`t touch, to provide that stubborn tooth “a place in the crowd”
Anyway, was a nice appointment and I can`t wait for the next one, on June 20.
Until than i`m going to the sea for a week, for my braces to see the beautiful sun

And here are pictures from the first day, 1 month, and from yesterday, the begging of my 4th month






Until next time, my blogger friends, all the best,

Cathy versus Basketball

hello everybody,
Yesterday I went to see Anca because I run out off elastics, so I received new ones Cathy Medium from 3M Unitek, which you will see how small are, and this is why I can only use Cathy for my right side, and for the front side I am still using Basketball from Lancer.



It doesn`t hurt at all, and i can`t wait for my next appointment on May 31.
I will post some new photos:) imagine that almost every single picture on my phone is with my teeth:)) i must be crazy :D
Until now i think the worst part about braces is kissing, I got used with eating, I can eat almost everything I want, except popcorn, also flossing takes soooo long, but what can I do?!?!
Anyway I still love my braces...and because "You need chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star" I will do all it takes to have straight teeth :))
Here are the updates


Until next time,
M
