Hi Eleni;

Welcome to the board! Someone just recently posted a link to her own website that showed what she went through to have her baby canines removed and the permanent ones pulled down into place. It was pretty wild to read her story and view the photos. I can't for the life of me remember who it was... so I went looking in the board's archived section...It was Pamela and her is the URL to her site:
