I remember those initial wires, my wires now look hard core. <br />From my experience I initially saw my open bite get a lot worse and after the wisdom teeth were removed it closed and my bite started to shift. <br />The ceramic on top looks great, I don't really know why I did top and bottom since no one sees my bottom teeth but I think the ceramic is totally worth it. <br />Congrats on starting this long and challenging process :)Incognita https://www.blogger.com/profile/10094613755561267960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328682455236712965.post-12146689061234581802011-12-06T23:00:01.056-08:002011-12-06T23:00:01.056-08:00@Jeanette: I'm glad this is helpful for you. ...@Jeanette: I'm glad this is helpful for you. I started it simply because there were a few other really good ones out there and they gave me a great idea of what the process is too. I'll continue to post as things develop/change. Thanks for reading!<br /><br />@Laura: Thank you for the compliment and added support that was nice of you! I still have some getting used to these darn braces. I keep thinking I have my night guard in and I just want to take it out and brush my teeth haha. Then I immediately remember I still have 18 months left! A bit depressing in that sense but I'm sure I'll get used to it. Also I just read over your blog and I'll be following along. Best of luck to you and thanks again for reading!<br /><br />TomCrazyMofo107https://www.blogger.com/profile/14847273610605935375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328682455236712965.post-68059422374233224772011-12-06T18:21:30.342-08:002011-12-06T18:21:30.342-08:00Tom,

After these first couple of ortho appointments all your teeth will level out and even though the open bite will still be there they will be so much straighter.<br /><br />Once all of your teeth are touching your back teeth wont have to bear all the forces of biting down which can be harmful down the road, especially if you're a bruxer. <br /><br />I look forward to seeing your updates and I hope everything goes will with your 3rd molar extractions.<br />LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08391567142617822537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328682455236712965.post-45309757773468964482011-12-05T07:34:10.104-08:002011-12-05T07:34:10.104-08:00I HATE OPEN BITES!

I paid like $300 extra for the ceramics but I think it was worth it.

You're lucky you got the ceramics too, they're barely noticeable;)Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09133651094598919385noreply@blogger.com
