Thats right turrrtlelove22 January is BLUE month everyone is pretty much going blue
Thanks for the complement Sbebs yeah it shocked me just how much my teeth improve in just 4 months. I hope i don't have any complications down the road. Unforanently the powerchains arn't painless just yet I still have slight amounts of pain. I'm hoping I can actually go back to harder foods instead of this soft food and liquid diet cause I've lost yet another 2 lbs and its hard for me to gain that back!
I have noticed a change in the molars alot since tuesday and I'm sure there will be loads more!

Looking pretty snazzy with that Blue color combo Tim. I would like colors like that if I had a chance since blue IS my favorite color. Hope your pain has subsided and you gain your weight back soon.Good luck!
5 Months, 3 weeks, and 2 days!
Adjustment Number 4!
Well today went well I’m guessing. I woke up this morning at 05:30 to get ready for a long day ahead of me. Well today I had to work 7-4 when I told my boss that I needed the day off for an appointment I had with the Orthodontist. Well they didn’t give it to me off so I ended up working 07:00-09:20 left for my orthodontist appointment got to the office at 09:50 and my appointment was at 10:00.
ORTHO APPOINTMENT INFORMATION:
I walk in to the office on a cloudy raining and very windy morning and sign in for my appointment. I then sit down and wait for what seems like an eternity. Five minutes passes by and my name is called. Timothy. I get up start walking towards the back rooms and get seated. I’m told, “The Doctor will be right with you!â€

Sorry to hear you are in pain Let's hope that your reward for enduring it will be LOTS AND LOTS of movement in the coming weeks! I am surprised at how everyone always knows their archwire size, I wish I knew mine. My ortho didn't say anything about it.
I knew mine cause I was able to look at my chart and saw the wire size and there plans for this adjustment. I will post pictures in about 1 hour got to run out on an errand. Pictures posting soon!

Hey, congrats on the next step! Seems like a blessing and a curse, though. The good news is that you get to move those teeth more. The bad news is that it doesn't feel very good...
I love that color! Very cool. My ortho doesn't have any sparkly colors.
I'm right there with you on the pain. We can be hopped up on the tylenol together. I just got my first powerchains yesterday. The teeth are not amused. Oh well, you gotta do what you gotta do.
Your teeth are looking great, though. Amazing progress. Wear those elastics like your ortho says, and you'll be done in no time!
OOOOH! I LOVE the fancy powerchains.... so purdy. No pink haha, just kidding. Lucky you... elastics. Looks like from that config he's working on your crossbite. Have fun with those elastics though Your teeth are looking good!

Your welcome jt2lang, were always here for support ot everyone that is here for the journey to braces. Your midline may be aligned right now but during the process of braces your midline will shift and become out of line just like mine used to be aligned and now its off center!
