Wow, your bottom teeth got into line pretty fast! Cool!

I also have canines that are in back of my bottoms. I hope once I get braces they will move like that.

Here's to more progress!

Yeah the progress is real fast! for a wayward tooth to move forward it took less than a month. Super movment!

So don't worry cawphee they will move into place very quickly! you just have to get past the first stage of getting use to braces, then after that it's all good! now i love my braces far too much

and i think i'm going to be sad to see them go actually!

I use to brush after every meal. carrying a little tooth brush around with me. But as my teeth are getting straighter, less food gets stuck all around the place (which is so annoying).

now time to just watch that open coil do its magic!!!!

sorry so late. I have been working like crazy all weekend, which doesn't help the tummy! I was able to eat a baked potato last night and the night before i tried to eat some wings and french fries with cheese...was able to eat about half! lol. I'm glad to hear that this will subside...so throwing up for me...just a yucky feeling tummy! I think it's the spacers that is making it so hard to chew as i don't have the wire until friday!

Good progress Chris. You must be happy!

I am missing the same tooth on the top (except on the other side!) I feel like my teeth will never be able to shift that much to get enough room for an implant... uggggh!!

Anyways.. way to go :)

Lea good work !

just try and eat as much as you can. Spacer are the painful part apparently.. well so my little sister says. and i didn't have them so i dont know. You mentioned throwing up.. have you been? i hope not, it's the worst.

Marley: Oh yeah Marley i am happy! you're missing the same tooth too? my ortho asked me if i wanted to make have an implant there, but it was an extra 5000 ontop of what i already was paying. and its hard to make payments on braces especially as im a student, and an extra 5000 ontop of the 6000 i'm already paying! way too much

so he said he's just going to try and shift my top centre to compensate and hopefully it looks good when it's finished

But yes don't worry they will definitely be able to shift enough room for an implant, trust me! I've seen it done before

nope no throwing up for me! Thank goodness! I hate that! I'm sorry to hear your sister hates them as much as i do...I was able to eat a soft taco today though....yay! lol

LOL taco's! it's funny to eat them! they really get stuck everywhere! and i mean everywhere - lol but it's all good, just don't eat them at a restaurant without a tooth brush

I was on lunch with a coworker and i excused myself to the bathroom to brush my teeth. She thought it was great! lol. actually she has an open bite and a gap and has been thinking about getting them since i got mine! lol

#26 Post by **cbradac** » Tue Mar 27, 2007 5:48 am

hehehe. I do that at work all the time. i brush my teeth after every meal at work. that's like 4 times a day

or 3 i forget

Everybody is use to it now, so i don't mind

Alot of people after seeing mine want to get them, they're so invisible

especially in photos hehe.

Why isn't Scott showing his teeth? Could it be that he doesn't want you to show him up?
