I don't like power chains

Rogue teeth alert

I'm quite jealous of your power chains! When I get those that means my gaps are going to close. Did you get much choice of colour? When I had braces as a kid, I think they only had clear.

don;t be jealous, they do nothing for me. i never get a pick of colour. my dentist just does what she wants

I was going to share my first majour update in quite a while, but my lips are all as
swollen and manky, and i don't want to inflict that on you.

My bite has closed somewhat, my top front teeth now sort of touch my bottom front teeth, i am actually excited. Now if only they would hurrry up and be done, i am bored of braces now.

New Bite. Also look who has a bottom arch....meeeeerr

[tillybrace]

My bottom teeth are done , but i have to keep the bottom brave one for a while longer
I also have double power chains on the top, and words can not express how much this is currently hurting me. .
I don't know if power chains come in various strengths, but this one hurts like hell, and having two on my upper jaw is cruel and unnecessary torture.
I have also asked my dentist about the jaw surgery she suggest as i was two scared when she mention it last year, i am not scared anymore, but maybe it is two late.
See I can still write proper updates, must be out of the moody braces are the devil stage...nope i am not, that i was a lie, i am sick of wearing them now, just want them off.

some update photos.

[tillybrace]

these photo's show my rogue tooth. I am concerned about the bracket placement, as the tooth does not seem to be moving forward and it seem to be pushing my right front tooth even further out. I keep trying to tell my dentist that she need to either move the bracket, or create space for the rogue tooth, but she keep powering chaining me instead, which just makes me rogue tooth bend out of position more, and painful move my front tooth in the wrong direction

[tillybrace]

See the bad lower chains have pushed the tooth out of the arch

[tillybrace]

Is it just me or has my nose changed?

I don't understand why some orthodontists put power chains on before the teeth have aligned properly. Surely if a tooth comes out of alignment the best thing to do is to take them off and make sure teeth don't go where they aren't wanted?

I watch quite a lot of adult braces on youtube and there was one girl who got power chains at the same time she got her braces on. Apparently, her ortho wanted the gaps to close faster, but her teeth weren't even straight. There was another girl I watched who got power chains on early, got them off at the next appointment and was told it was a 'mistake'.

Anyway, I'm sure they know better than me.

I also have a chain on now (just on the front four) and they are like torture. Asides from the problems with that lateral, your teeth are looking great!
