27 Years Young. Natick, MA

To day I'm 13 months or so in and my orthodontist is gone. My new orthodontist said that my old one was doing everything wrong and changed everything. New top wire... no more power chains on full top and bottom and she switched elastic size and the way they are on my teeth. Time will tell I thought he was an amazing dentist and still do as teeth have come so far but maybe her way will be faster? She did say if I wear my elastics every day I could have them off in about 6 months. I can't wait to see if she is right. Usually my teeth don't really hurt for an hour or two after I have them adjusted but today they hurt while I was still in the chair the aching kicked in.. can't wait to see. I hope she knows what she is talking about

I'm 14 months in and I don't even really think about them anymore. I hope that they come off soon though, going to the dentist every month is getting old even though it's not so bad.

A few months ago In April I think I had 5 extractions at once. Cost me $1300 out of pocket . 2 were wisdom teeth and 3 were related to bringing back huge overbite
