So I had my adjustment today.

As I suspected, I no longer have to wear the elastics for my overjet because it's gone. He said we'll see how that olds.

I had several brackets bonded. They look way different than the others, because it looks like there's a pull of glue instead of being flush with the teeth. Oh well.

I had bumpers installed on my back teeth. No big deal.

But the bad thing is-- I have to wear an elastic IN FRONT! It's going from my upper right lateral incisor to my lower left canine. It's for my midline. I always thought they used elastics one side from canine to molar.

It sucks. Dr. B said I should try to wear it as much as possible, and I will.

I'm happy that I no longer have to wear the overjet elastics, though!

Anyone else had to wear elastics in the front?
