The last appointment I had with my ortho, he took me off rubber bands for 5 weeks. I'm not exactly sure why, but I don't have to put on any rubber bands now. He did mention that some of my teeth have shifted and he would have to re-position some of the brackets on the next appointment. He said that when he originally put the brackets on, it was before the surgery and he had to "guess" where they should go based on how the teeth would be after the surgery. Now that I am done with the surgery, I can begin "traditional" orthodontics. I still think I have a huge overbite. I also recently noticed that whenever I laugh my mouth exposes a lot of upper gums, which I hate. It reminds me of what they call a "gummy" smile. Yuck.
I guess I'll never be satisfied.
