Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Hello there - Today was my OD appointment, where he discusses his treatment plan for my teeth. The information he provided is as follows: my spacers and ceramic brackets will be installed on July 26th, and the archwires and bands will go in on August 9th. Both upper and lower will be put on at the same time. The spacers will be left in for two weeks due to appointment scheduling, not because I need them in for that long. He says he is aiming for ten months instead of twelve months, but will keep in close contact with my OMS about my progress. I will need power chains on top to close the gap between my two front teeth, but won't put them on for a while. (Cammie: he doesn't do slenderizing, and doubts anyone in Boise does it either. He was surprised that I knew what it was.) So, anyway, that's the story. I have 5 weeks to enjoy eating popcorn and other forbidden foods. I will be seeing my OMS on July 18th for my Orthognathic Surgery consult, but was hoping to be braces before my appointment with him. Oh, well. It looks like I will be in braces soon enough. I'm excited to finally begin the journey! Thank you to all of you for your support. I'm sure I will continue to need it for the next year and a half. ~~~ Diane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
