Uh, yeah, you'd have to be blind not to see the changes! That one tooth was like an insubordinate army recruit that got his butt whipped into line! Things are looking nice and lined up. Big improvement.

Well, I wish that last pic was right side up--but it still looks really good!! They are straight all across--I would be really happy if that were my result!!

did you have what is called a canted occlusal plane due to that supererupted tooth under the right canine?
Had full mouth metal braces for 21 months. Debonded April 2013. Now wearing clear plastic retainers every other night.

I have no formal dental or orthodontic education. Hence, all opinions expressed by me on this forum are those of an "informed consumer" and by no means intended as an expert advice.
