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. 

Good lord, this tray is not playing any games.

Since Susan is moving, my front teeth are so sensitive. Taking out my trays the next day was comical. I think I ate mac and cheese for 2 days straight. 

I changed tray 2 on Thursday night rather than Wednesday morning. Seemed to work out okay. My teeth were a little clicky a couple of days ago but nothing too ridiculous.

I’ll be changing into Tray 3 tomorrow night so hopefully, I get that blog post turned around sooner than this one. Woops. I’ll also be out of town Wednesday so fun times. 

I signed up for a conference at the end of October, hopefully Susan will be closer to the arch so I don’t have to worry about people thinking I’m missing a tooth.
