Treatment is finished !

Last week I finished treatment had had the attachments removed :-) I'm really happy with the end result which has taken 12 weeks longer than initially thought but my teeth aren't setting and move if I leave retainer out for 20 mins or more and I end up with a gap. I've been advised to wear retainers full time and to go back in July to see if this is working . The retainers feel noticeably thicker but soon get used to them and they are quite tight when 1st put them in .

Set 9 - 1/3 way there!!

I went for a check up today and my ortho mentioned elastics which he never discussed at the beginning ... It's a good job I'd read lots of reviews on here! He then said everything is tracking well and I may not need them but do need a lot of slenderisation in about 6 weeks.

Is the slenderization the same as interproximal reduction (IPR), for movement's sake, or is it some sort of cosmetic thing? Also, are you starting to see movement yourself, since you're at 9 now?

Hi yes slenderisation is same as IPR. It's for movement but I'm hoping it'll improve my 2 front teeth as they are quite wide. I have noticed a difference with the teeth either side of my 2 front teeth so far
