Power chain!

I'm in a lot of pain since getting a power chain attached to my lower brackets yesterday. So I'm not going to write much. I managed to get two pics, though, so you can see what a power chain looks like when installed on the braces. It's not easy to see, but boy can I feel it working! Ouch!

I've provided comparison shots: the image on the top is from December 2006. The image below it was taken on Feb. 21, 2007, and has the power chain attached. The power chain makes the guide wire more 'invisible' in my opinion!

























Again the top image is from December 2006. The image below it was taken on Feb. 21, 2007, and has the power chain attached.




















Oh, and I'm still waiting for my Invisalign to come in!

Thanks for the power chain pics. Makes me feel more at ease if I need to get them for my uppers towards the end. You have beautiful teeth!

Glad to see you're still kickin', Christine.

You've really had a hard time of it lately - hope everything gets easier for you from here on in & your Invisalign trays are here real soon!
Your teeth are looking mighty fine already :)

Regards,
Anne

Your bottoms look really good. Are they just about done? They look like they are about done. My son has those chain thing on his. He chose pink for the top and metalic gold because real men wear pink ;
I dont have chains on mine but he did do this weird bent wire thing to mine. I have a pic on my blog.

Looking good! I finally got my Invisalign just last weekend, after a six month wait. I was only about four weeks into treatment, but I was all geared up for being done by now. Anyways, apparently now I have to have attachments. Ridiculously uncomfortable. Then again, comfort and orthodontics rarely go together. I think the only good thing about Invisalign is the Clincheck thing, so I can see just how my teeth will be changing over the next six and a half months.
