thx for your comments. I'm still high from the debonding. Hehe. It's SO weird to brush your teeth without all the metal. And I have got to learn to smile and show teeth. I just hope that I will not relapse. Can't wait to get that retainer eventhough I will probably speak like a person with a speech ...

goodbye braces :-D

Then the bonded retainer were fixed on the inside of the lower and upper front teeth after which the brackets + wire were cut off. The worst part was the removal of the bonding ma...

thx Audra and starzz :) starzz : yes, it's that lateral incisor. My ortho has explained that he has tried to extrude the tooth but the tooth apparently does not respond. I have had some problems with the teeth in the upper jaw as the teeth almost don't move. For example only by using a triple power ...

thx Megan11, There still are some minor issues that I would really really like to see sorted out. Especially my upper right lateral incisor which is sort of indented. However, I'm not sure if it can be sorted out in this life and neither is my ortho... In any event I'm keeping hope alive and looking...

hi guys :) time for a little update. Those turbo bites have really been a smart move. Gaps in upper teeth are practically closed. A gap has opened between upper left lateral incisor and canine but this should close easily within the next weeks. My ortho changed the wire and also gave me a triple pow...
