I never imagined that this process would take 4yrs to complete! Its been a while since I’ve posted so i will catch you guys up.
Since the last time i posted (2017) I have.....
*Visited the Ortho Surgeon several times in regards to opening the spaces where my implant WAS going to go
*been in and out elastics more than i would like to say
*Began to doubt my decision to go with traditional braces
*found that in this Journey I’m not going to get the PERFECT smile I envisioned
* lost a little bit of faith in my Ortho and General Dentist office and Oral surgeons staff.
On 3/25/20, my braces will be removed (thank you Jesus). I wont be getting an implant because after so much time spent trying to move my roots just right and horrible communication between my oral surgeon and Ortho’s office. I honestly don’t have the energy to spend another 6months-1yr trying to open the space. So I will be getting a bridge after my braces come off.
These pics posted are from 3/3/20. My Ortho will be continuing my treatment through a retainer to complete any movement that is needed.

I will be posting the after pics here in the special day.

Quick update!
Jus uploading some pix to show the progress since the last upload. Nothing much has changed. Still have bands on one side of my mouth to correct my midline. And still using power-chains to get some movement. I recently went to an ortho-surgeon who will be removing my wisdom teeth (FINALLY) and installing my implant and he informed me that the way my ortho is straightening my teeth actually have my roots blocking the space for the implant(I'll add those pictures too). So I'll have to tell my
Ortho about that and we'll see if that will push out the process or not. But without further a-due heres the photos!!!!

your teeth look great! Stay diligent when it comes to your retainers when the braces come off.

Congratz on your journey; I'm an adult and got braces 1 year ago this month. It's truly worth it. It's hard to believe I ever had a gap. I have 6 more months at the most to go. Afterwards I plan to get a perm. retainer on my front teeth to keep spaces closed.
