Went in for my checkup again, wires Are still the Same.
Installed power chain to the upper front 123 Teeth, and Removed my Wire from my brackets on the 123 lowers and placed them on the tops of the brackets and wired tied them to intrude the Lower teeth.
I am very Sore Today but that will only last for a couple of days. Progress is Slow but getting great results:)
Will post pics Later.

Re: Finally in Braces.
8 Month progress update, on the same wire on the upper from day 1!, Have a Power band on the upper to close the gaps on my front 6 Teeth,still have a few tweaks to go yet, leveling the teeth is probably the next Adventure on the top, lower is still on wire 2,had that put on a few mo ago,already have my wire sitting on top of the lower brackets to level the lower teeth.
I don't know what the plan is about the triangles as it is from bone loss due to Periodontal Disease.
Facial profile is really different now also.
Smiling more & more everyday!

wow! that is amazing progress! i have been feeling discouraged with my braces lately, like i have so many things to fix and it will take so long, but it must feel so great to see such movement in your teeth and bite! i just have to keep my eye on the future!
Re: Finally in Braces.
Thank you.
You will Start to see Changes Soon, was about 6-8 weeks before I Seen Changes, I was in the exact Same boat as you, too many issues and was going to take forever, it really doesn't as soon as everything starts to move.
Good Luck on your progress cakers

Re: Finally in Braces.
Back at the Ortho today, changed My Upper wire from .12 to a .16, installed a new lower wire still the same size .13 for integrity issues, intruding my lower teeth.
Shaved some teeth also, Right front Tooth to match my left Front Tooth, right Canine to match the Left Canine tooth.
Took off the Power chain on the upper 6 Social and My gaps started to reappear within a couple of Hours. Contacted My Ortho Back and he is going to reinstall the power chains whenever they can fit me in.
Turned out great otherwise, had a Great appointment, everything is working Faster than expected even tho they are going really slow on the wire changes.
Here is a Pic from today's Visit.

Re: Finally in Braces.
Thank's Emily,Yes Very pleased with the Progress so far
Re: Finally in Braces.
Not too much to update except they put a tighter power chain on and leveled my lower teeth.
it is a slow progress for sure but the rewards will be well worth it, it will be 2 years in Oct since I had them put on.
