Decided to be adventurous and get some colored bands....living on the edge in my late thirties, lol! I actually really like that I did that. Teeth are sore on and off. Still not able to touch the back teeth together but there is definitely movement, I only have two bracket cushions on each side when I used to have three. Ortho was pleased with the progress so far, so I'll take it.

Thank you! I feel like they have moved a ton already! I'm always surprised at how fast they are moving! It does seem like there are a couple of teeth that are a little bit turned sideways that are not turning very fast, but as far as evening out and straightening up it's definitely happening way faster than I thought it would.
