Hi Samara. Your teeth will move in ways you never thought they

could! I have had my braces on for almost 1.5 years and my teeth

have moved so much. The process does seem the same as when I was

younger. The difference is where they hook bands and wires and all

kinds of other wonderful things (power chains, etc. etc.) to the

brackets. If you have a good orthodontist everything will be just

fine

> Thanks for your reply Sara. You seem to know a lot so I hope you

don't mind if I ask you another question I guess what I am

trying to say is that I don't understand how the mechanics of the

braces I have on now are any different than the braces that I had on

in my teens. Everything is on my teeth the same way they were when

I was a teenager. So what exactly does the ortho have to do to make

my teeth basically move in the opposite direction so that they are

going to be in their new position for my my new jaw position. Does

that make any sense? It seems like the ortho would have to do

something a completely different, but so far everything seems the

same.
