Getting there...(w/ pics)

#1 Post by NKovaci88 »

Well I asked my ortho about a possible debanding date, and he said things were looking good and I should have them off sometime in the early spring. Some photos:

My bite from the front. Looking pretty good, although my midline is slightly off. Also, one thing that has been bugging me is how my left lateral incisor is longer than it should be -- would this be shaved down later?
And you can't tell from this angle, but I still have an overjet of about 2mm.

Upper arch. No real complaints here...

Image
Bottom arch. I'm not totally happy with this. There's obviously that pre-molar extraction gap on the right that needs to be closed, but other than that, there's something off about my bottom arch in general. It's hard to tell from this picture, but the teeth on the left side are a bit flared out in comparison to the right.

Well, those are my teeth. I don't have any before pics, but there has been a major improvement in the alignment of my teeth as well as my bite (I had an 8mm overbite before). Thoughts?
