Today I got more powerchains on both sides to close my gaps more... this time they don't hurt and it's been hours since my appointment. I guess my teeth got used to soooooooooooooo much pressure from the chains. I don't have a full chain i just have like a 4 unit on one side and a 3 unit on the othe...

I've noticed that my top lip doesn't stick out as much since braces and also my chin is now a bit more out (that's a good thing tho). I had my top 1st biscuspids extracted though but the gaps are closing... it's kind of cool :D. I guess everyone's face changes a little bit but some must not notice it.

Holy crap i thought i was the only 15 year old here... nice to know someone else was curious :) I'll be graduating in 2008 too and i have braces and hope to have them off by then too. Now about your question... My ortho told me that it usually takes from 1 year to 3 years to correct teeth but it all...

I got two top 1st bicuspids extracted to make more room in my mouth in August... I got braces on August 18 :) My gaps are closing really slowly too, but at least they're closing! I hate powerchains :x they hurt like hell! But I know that eventually the gaps will close and I'll have a perfect smile :...
