Before and now Pic comparison

guess I should update

I got braced on January 29th. Just brackets on the top and fully wired on the bottom. She does not want to wire the top till the bone is good and healed. I am guessing that this will be at my 2nd adjustment. My first adjustment will be March 12th. There has been definite changes to my smile somethings are an improvement like a wider smile, others bug the crap out of me like the top half of my face still looks swollen, yet it is not, that is just my face now. My gap closed on its own for the most part, except a triangle at the top by the gums, it looks like one tooth moved straight and the othe tooth seemed to tilt as it moved. Hopefully when my top teeth are wired the braces will fix that. But overall I am just thankfull that my gap is for the most part gone!!!
So on with the pics here is me now.














A little different than my original pics I posted so we are making progress... Top wire should be on before the end of April and expander should be out before July... baby steps.... I just can't wait to have the double jaw surgery behind me!
