I get my braces off on Dec 23rd! What a great Christmas present!
When I was at the ortho yesterday I saw that they sold the Crest Professional Whitening Strips for $55. Is it worth the extra $$ to buy these?

Class II Elastics
I got Class II elastics yesterday to close a deep bite. It's amazing to think 2 small rubber bands will move my jaw forward!? I was a skeptic, but my jaw is sore and I've had a headache all day, so something must be happening!

Interesting :P He did say my teeth have lined up nicely. He also said I needed some root work done. The root on my rotated tooth (that's now nearly straight!) needs to be moved forward. I wonder if they use the bends to accomplish that? How exciting! One year down and I'm thinking 6-8 months or so t...

TMA Wire
I had an adjustment earlier this morning and as the ortho was poking around he told the asst. that next adjustment he'd do TMJ. I asked the asst. later what he said (honestly I thought he said TNA). But she said TMJ wire and its lots of fun and winked at me. :shock: I should have asked more question...

I know, it is amazing, isn't it?! :shock: I have to say that it was painful moving that tooth, but I always looked at the pain as progress.

Check out the progress! (pics)
I got braces in January. After many months it was finally time to work on my rotated tooth. I got a button on it in May and then a regular bracket in August. I can't believe how much it has moved in a few months! Day 1 http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd198/littlefunshine/braces12001copy.jpg Today...
