February Progress

I went in for my adjustment yesterday and it was not that bad. Again, my orthodontist changed all my rubber ligatures and the steel ligature on my upper right lateral incisor. But then it changed. Instead of having a power chain from my molar to my lower left canine, the powerchain was attached between my lower left 2nd bicuspid and my lower left lateral incisor. I can only imagine this means that my canine has moved as far as it can go and it's time to bring another tooth over to the left to help out my coil spring a bit.

And I guess since it's a brand new power chain it is STRONG. My lateral incisor has already visibily moved. it's right next to my canine now... And the area of the gum where the tooth used to be is all red and raw.

As you can guess I'm having difficulty closing my mouth all the way now. It seems to interfere (or at least feel odd) on my appliances....
