So i got all 4 wisdom teeth taken out since my 6th month photos and it cost me a pretty penny.... teeth are expensive but they are sure worth it!!... ok so here are my 7 months pics!!! i hope you all enjoy the differences as much as I do!! I'm so excited... about another 8 to 10 months and i'll be de-braced!... I find it much easier to smile and I feel less embarrassed to laugh around people... This means the world to me and I cant believe im half way there!!!

On another note Im going to visit NY again march 6th... so wish me luck on the plane!!

Your teeth look amazing! They almost look like a completely different set of teeth from when you first started. Congrats on your progress!

Wow Peggy, terrific progress!!! You must be so pleased

.

I had all 4 wisdom teeth taken out at the same time too so I know what you mean about cost. It wasn't easy "parting" with the money but I'm glad to have them gone. They caused me a lot of issues when I was younger

.

Good luck on the plane! I'm sure you'll do great

Front with purple power chain... Still seeing minimal changes here.

Big changes here... cross in front teeth is smaller and you can see the extra molar band on your left to help cross bite.

Bottom arch in purple power chain... BIG Changes in 8 months.

Left Big changes with my front teeth including the one I had the gim graft on.

Right with extra molar band to correct cross bite... Not much change in the cross bite as of yea but big changes on the incisors.

Smile Not much change that I can see... Very minimal as of yet even tho others say they see a differance.

Yeah I'm so happy that I went ahead and got braces! I'm so excited about the movement that I've seen so far and I'm very anxious to see the outcome!... I must say that the 10 grand that I have put into my teeth so far was sooo worth it!... I've done everything to my teeth from cleanings and filings and gum grafts and 4 wisdom teeth extractions, Spaces and braces! I dont think that I will ever be sensitive in my mouth ever again!!! lol

I feel that the most painful part so far has been a tie between spacers 3 wisdom teeth extractions at once and my gum graft! but if I had to choose between the 3 I would choose spacers... it was awful!!

I had a dream last night that I was de braced and I was crying I was so happy... I can't wait till that day!!!

THAnks for all the photos! Your teeth have changed so much! It makes me feel better about having mine (i've only had them on 3 weeks). I hope I have as much progress as you by 6 months!!

Thanks for your nice words guys! means the world to me!... I been thinking alot lately about my de-brace day... I been wondering how much longer I really have and what my ortho think about it... I know that the day I get them removed I will cry like a little baby... lol I'll cry straight through the whole process!!

I been reading the de-banning stories on archwired.com's main page and have been getting very anxious about when my time comes... I will miss the braces.. but most of all i will be worried about what kind of retainers I should get... my sister had gotten bonded and she hates them and I wanted bonded so i wouldnt have to worry but I do need to keep them clean ialso heard they were very uncomfortable... so im not sure what is better...

I like the hawleys look better the the essix... I cant imaging having squeeky plastic like plates over my teeth kinda makes my hair stand on end just thinking about it...

Does anyone have any oppions on any of these kinda of retains.. any success or horror stoies regarding either of them??

Wow Necra,

Your teeth are looking great! I was just reading your story for the first time.

Doesn't it feel great to smile and not be self conscience of your teeth!

Your teeth look great! Nice tongue ring by the way

Can't wait to see how your teeth progress

lol everyone jokes about my tongue ring in that pic! lol it surprised my ortho! haha i can only be me! having braces as an "alternative" dresser i find to be easier to cope with cause people expect me to do crazy eccentric things .. like get braces with purple power chaims at 24 years of age! lol

Little goth-punk chick with braces .. all i need is pig-tails and a chearleader outfit!

yea i think this style is super fun and cute!

People expect me to have bright colored ligatures also, but mostly just at the ortho office. They've seen all the crazy things I've done with my hair for the past 2 years and they're shocked when I ask for silver ligs!It's best to just shrug it off
