1st Adjustment

Today was my first adjustment appointment. I got an archwire across my top 6 teeth to create some more space & start straightening things out. I got new ligs (dark pink) on the bottom along with a twisty wire to begin moving my lower right cuspid into position of where my lower right first bicuspid was extracted. I don't think I got a whole new wire on the bottom, just ligs and the twisty wire. I don't think it is a power chain, I am not sure what it is!

Approximate jail sentence of expander: Another 2-3 months =[

I hope it goes by fast! Although, I am pretty used to it now.

Potential for 2 more extractions, dependent upon how much space the upper archwire can create on its own. I still have quite a bit of crowding. =[

Here are a few pictures from today:
