The braces are working wonderfully. Fred’s teeth are nice and straight. Only concern right now, is that the bottom canines STILL haven’t come in. We had the springs put in about 2 months ago, and they have made a pretty decent gap on both sides, but there is no evidence of those teeth coming in anytime soon. He has lost the baby teeth well over 2 years ago. So that is on the question list for next appointment.
*This is the only photo that he has authorized to be put on the internet.*
Fred has had his brace on now, for just over 2 months. It seems like he’s had them on for much longer than that! On the two month mark I took a photo of how his teeth have progressed. I cannot believe how fast these suckers work!
He has springs on the bottom now, trying to spread the spaces needed for the 2 adult teeth to come in. He lost the baby teeth over 2 years ago, and there is absolutely no room for them to come in. But now his mouth is looking good, and of course just for soccer he had to get his teams colors!! Go Red and Black!!
(*This picture makes me laugh so hard, it makes his mouth/chin look ginormous!!*)
