Well, I just received my initial pictures and the clinical findings from my orthodontist. I'm eager to get this process started because a few of my bottom teeth have been bothering me for a while. Here is what he found:
Upper teeth are too far in front of the lower teeth
Upper teeth are tipped back
Excessive deepbite
Lower teeth are left of center
Upper teeth are crowded
Lower teeth are very crowded
Start of peridontal disease on left side of mouth
Tooth with the peridontal problems will be extracted to save the other teeth in that region
Clicking in jaw joint consistent with TMJ
Neck pain and headaches also consistent with TMJ
Abnormal wearing of teeth consistent with grinding at night
Comprehensive treatment is planned
Minimum of 24 months of treatment
