February 2023:
I am now on set 45. A lot of updates happened before. Basically, I did scaling work in Feb again, after tons of coffee before.
I expect 56 sets in general. For now, after some further filing of my "sides" (incisors), my teeth already align fairly well. Maybe one day I'll also restore some damaged surfaces and then everything will look perfect.
mid-April
I am on set 50. Time flies. And I lost my attachment again for the 3rd time.
mid-July
I returned to Canada last month. My next appointment is approaching, and I think I pretty much set in set 56 today:
I'll spend a few hours to have the attachments removed, finally. Then I'll have a retainer, and I suppose I'll also wear that daily. The difference is it is not "rugged" (for attachments) like the previous 56 sets.
These 3 pictures already showed the difference, the way how my incisors are no longer skewed outwards. I'll still need scaling, but that's also the last bit of dental work related to this $6000+ project.
19 July.
I'll try to "bind" the "front" 20 teeth for another 2 weeks, less than that, to close up some gap between them and the first molars. I have a significant gap between 1st and 2nd molars - getting chunks of meat inside every meal.
