I have baby blue and WHOA BOY! These suckers are turning dingy dark gray after 3 weeks of eating whatever the heck I felt like. That would include tons of tomato sauce, catsup, mustard, turmeric, chili, cajun spices, and bar-b-que sauce.

Happy braceversary! Time flies doesn't it?!

Super exciting!! Now you'll see some more big movement!

Oh my, look at that transformation! Your teeth seem to be cooperating well!

Ok guys, I'm back! I've been so bad and have not worn my rubberbands. I bet I'll be getting a koby hook next adjustment. Also, I will definitely post pictures tomorrow. By now, my lovely, baby blue powerchains have turned a nasty grey. WOW....

I've been a little better but still not really in the mood to be online. Sorry guys, I have pics but I just don't want to be at my computer. I'd rather be out and about. I will update with pics another time.

Still having a rough time. Things are a bit better, but we'll see. I've picked up drinking my sorrows away. I haven't lost one bit of my tolerance for alcohol. I am going away camping and fishing this weekend. I hope this helps me because I have had tons of emotions running around. Thank you lovelie...

Still stuck in a funk in my life. In regards to ortho my next adjustment is the 20th maybe something good will come out of it.

I've had a cr@ppy couple of weeks. I will update as soon as I am up to it.

I to adore my ortho office! I look forward to my adjustments and my ortho is always so kind no matter how many emergency appointments I have. EVen if it isn't an emergency, he always treats me like my progress will be hindered and takes me in no matter how frivolous the "emergency." I was ...

Pineapple. glad to hear your orthodontist was willing to take the time to explain everything to you. It seems like the best way to approach something/someone is not to be accusational and pointing fingers. Good choice and sounds like all is well!

I have not had any figure 8 ligs but I have heard my ortho tell one of the assistants to put figure 8 on another patient. I have always had a 16x24 or 18x24 or 18 wire. Those were always fashioned with regular o-rings or powerchains.

Gosh darn, your teeth look great right now, I can't wait to see your arches when they're done!

Are you kidding me? Those are the same teeth? Stace, they look great! You must be showing off your pearlies everywhere you go.

All you can do is wait for your ortho to come back. You won't lose much progress in a week.
