Close Ups

Since getting my brace I have really been able to see how the alignment of my teeth are all wrong. I've taken some close ups to demonstrate what I mean. My orthodontist has informed me that because my teeth "roll in", I require a brace to re-align them ready for surgery. I never really thought about my teeth before but since having this brace its all I can think about!!


This is just to show my overbite a bit more clearly.
Here's the 'helix'!

Bottom teeth - a little wonky
So this is what my teeth look like when my jaw is closed
If I move them forward they don't really like keeping in line. This is showing what happens if I force them to stay in line - one side doesn't really close or make much contact.
This is what my jaw and teeth do if I simply move my lower jaw forward. 

Come on brace - do your thing!!
