In my case with IPR and powerchains on the side that has to be moved...

Well... updates (braced on 1st of november, linguals on top)

I am on upper lingual braces since 1st of november.
Congrats for the decision to get braced and goodluck on this journey!

Thank you, fosterp, for your message. My baby teeth were still in their place when my adult teeth came out, so they came out crooked. My adult teeth are also very big and they have always been crowded. My arch is not narrow (not at all) and the ortho never mentioned bite problems. My x-rays showed t...

NW, actually it's Revealsmile's bolg, not mine. :). Indeed, her teeth moved a lot in just few months and that brings hope to me. Norrie, thank you for your reply. I am in braces for 18 days and no changes so far. I hope to see some movement by the New year's eve to start the new year with a new pers...

I am sorry, i have no experience with extraction so i am not much of a help. I just hope everything will be ok for you, the way you want. But there is one thing i want to say...to everybody: people, keep all your healthy teeth in your mouth. If your ortho insists that extraction of healthy teeth is ...

Anna... I wish I had your teeth...

They do, especially my front left incisor (the right one in the picture) (. It has a root canal, so it's kind of grey... and, because of the crowding, it is very twisted, its sides are not even . But i really hope my ortho will be able to fix my smile. I will keep you updated.

Well, here are my very ugly teeth. I am on upper linguals since 1st of November.

Thank you, Anedia

I thought that stabilizing teeth in their new position is retainer' job... . At least that is what I was hoping...

Wow, i am really impressed. I am only in my 7th day with braces, but seeing MrsCharisma's pictures I was wondering why do we have to wear braces for 18-24-26 months if the teeth are strenghtening in only 9 or 10 months. I am wearing braces for crowded upper teeth. If they will look good in less than...

I would have been very happy also with your "before"s. They weren't bad at all.
Anyway, congrats on your new smile!
