Feel free to check it out!

Yay for progress! I've had my expander for almost 2 weeks (13 total turns so far) and I have a space between my front two teeth! I am over the moon excited! Hope all goes well tomorrow at the ortho! I've updated my blog including a picture! Check it out! :o)o

Congrats on the new archwire! Now you're officially "fully braced" :) Sorry to hear about your new jail sentence but I'm sure that it'll go by fast. I'll keep my fingers crossed so you don't have to get more extractions...

Thank you! Yes, I am so happy that it is removed and am looking forward to finally seeing some results in my upper arch. Keep your fingers crossed for me that I won't need any extractions up there!!! :D
