Wendy Lady#Braces update!
Today I got the word that my teeth are moving along perfectly. We talked about how the bands were twisting my pre-molars and she told me that we will fix it in post. Haha.
The reason it does that is because to move the upper back molars forward, the root system is tougher since it has like 4 roots to pull along. That's why front teeth will straighten and move faster since they only have 1-2 roots.
She doesn't want me to worry about teeth that look like the physics are twisting now because when everything is aligned with my bite, then we will get the other teeth straighter and turned forward. And admittedly, I saw those teeth originally straightened in about 2-3 months, so I'm going to stop panicking and just wear my bands.
We added springs on my existing lateral tooth because she's going to start making space to build it out since it's just a tiny lateral tooth. And we increased the spring size where my other lateral is missing.
I have power chains back on the bottom. Not sure why she removed them last time around. Maybe she forgot I needed them down there. But they're back.
And man...everything hurts again. But I'm already feeling a massive shift in that space with the bigger spring. I'll get that new fake tooth in no time!
