Casi clinici ortodontici

Canino incluso erotto spontaneamente

Tray No. 15.

Susan has begun to push her way into the spot where the extraction was done. It’s apparent when looking at my gums. If you press on your gums you’ll see they turn pale, the same thing is happening on the section of gum that is in the way of Susan. The gum is also starting to bulge where they use to be sunken in. It is evident where bone was removed for Susan to have an easier time moving into position. The roof of my mouth is solid until I start pressing on the channel that was carved out of the bone. 

I went to the orthodontists a couple of weeks ago to get the rest of my trays and I only have to wear up to tray 21 so that puts me ending my treatment on January 25th considering I don’t need to a third scan done for further refinement. Hopefully I don’t but we’ll see. 

Hello blog readers! I know it’s been so long.

A couple of things to update on:

Susan is moving right along. My front teeth have been moved slightly over so that my bite is crooked. This is so that Susan has enough room to come through without disrupting the other teeth. Once Susan is in place my front teeth will be moved back to have a correct bite.

The tooth that is directly below Susan is being pushed backwards so that Susan doesn’t interfere with it. The same thing will happen like with my front teeth when Susan is in place, the lower tooth will be moved to it’s correct position.

I’m really excited to start seeing Susan come into the arch. It still looks like I’m missing a tooth but it will only get better with time. 

I have the .gif created in Photoshop but the quality it has to be in order to be uploaded to tumblr is poo. I’m going to see if I can save it out as a video so that I don’t have to sacrifice quality. 

I’ve been clinching my jaw again. This could be caused by my weird bite, cold weather or stress. :shrugs:

The pain from my teeth are pretty much limited to just 4 teeth. It’s really not that bad anymore. It takes about 3 days for my teeth to take the form of the new trays. 

My front teeth are about a millimeter from each other but it’s kind of not as exciting cause I know they aren’t actually in the correct place.
