This is my second visit. I am in my mid-40s, and for a long time I had facial asymmetry with one side of my lips raised. More than 10 years ago, a university hospital told me that the only option was double-jaw surgery, so I just lived with it, but I started this treatment after learning that non-surgical treatment was possible. At the moment, I am using elastics to lower the upper jaw toward the molar area and straighten the lower molars. It has only been 2 months, but I was told there have been changes both in appearance and in the oral area, so I feel a bit sorry that I could not start treatment earlier. There is blue resin placed on the right molar, and I hope it can be removed soon so I can move on to the next step with removable orthodontic appliances. I recommend this for anyone with an asymmetrical jaw.

I had orthodontic treatment because my chin was recessed. My teeth were already fairly straight, so I did not need any extractions, but I did wear rubber bands. In the end, my teeth became straighter and I am satisfied when I look at them.
