Guest guest Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Wow, congrats, Nathalie! I just got my braces on a month ago and am supposed to spend two years in them, but my teeth sure are moving! Your story gives me hope that it could be sooner.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Thanks katie, I'm sure that your new treatment plan will work out perfectly. I'll definately post pictures, I have not come around to posting them (have them all on the computer from start to finish) and I'll make sure that once the braces off, I'll post everything on site2.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Thanks! I think the SARPE contributed to my teeth moving quickly, according to the ortho all that " young bone " really does the trick. I hope you'll be out of them soon, but most importantly, that you get the result you want (even if it means spending a little more time in braces)! Nathalie > > Wow, congrats, Nathalie!

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 I have an open bite and I also need an upper advancement. Does anyone know what an advancement is like? My surgeon seemed very cool and calm about it as to not to make me worry...he made it sound like the procedure is so simple and easy...which I guess I liked because I'm so tired of telling people about this and they look at me like it's going to be the worst thing ever. I'm 20 years old so hopefully everything will turn out okay since I'm " young " but everyone is different. I am not worried about the surgery at all, I have taken out my wisdom teeth with that surgeon before and completely trust him, I am only worried about healing, and how it'll be like to be numb and how long I should expect it. I don't want to go to school feeling that way because I know how sensitive I am to feelings (perhaps it's because I'm a poet) But I guess feeling numb to everything will just help me with my art. Hahaha...see there is a plus side to every negative side. -Norma aruwoman <no_reply > wrote: Thanks a lot Norma, I am 26, haven't gotten around to posting any pictures but I sure will post them on site 2 by the end of the month, so you can see it from start to finish.
