The teeth are definitely moving. I can see space between the front lower teeth and better alignment everywhere. The mini brush goes in under the wires between the teeth much easier. I still haven't mastered - dared - flossing, but I booked a cleaning appointment for next week ;). I also have my second ortho appointment that same morning. This time the wires are going on all teeth, now that the extra teeth are gone and the space is filling in well with the rest.
The hooks in the back stopped bothering me, but the front pins are still dangerously sharp; I'm making good use of the protective wax :)
Food intake is better and I think I mastered the art of using fork & knife instead of biting directly into big pieces. The funniest episode was New Year's. We had chaabiyat for dessert (see picture, these yummies are not bite size); everyone was biting into their chaabiyat while Ms Coco here was cutting hers with a knife and eating with the fork metel elli Alla 3atiyoun lol Well anyways, it was worth every bite ;)
All in all, this experience was hell for the first couple of months but I'm definitely getting better at it, and I'm looking forward to next week's appointment.
Akid to be continued....
