basically:
got new wires, new banding on bottom jaw
powerchain on top jaw
elastics no longer needed
problem with PCT paying for implant/ bridge (may need to arrange thru dentist)
if gaps close up with powerchain by next app 14 nov, braces shud come off next app after that!
retainer will have false tooth from braces on it
NB - apologies for brief notes, will write up properly when I have more time!
I've recently had my braces removed (May 2009) and now have an Essix retainer for my bottom jaw (to wear at night) and an Hawley retainer for my top jaw with false tooth attached (to wear during the day).
Starting in Aug/Sept 2004 I had Damon type 2 brackets, then In-ovation brackets (replaced March and May 2006) and seven In-ovation brackets without clips (with elastic ligatures).
Total time in braces = 4 years and 8 months!
NB: All treatment is through the NHS apart from implant work done by Mr Ziff which is private.
