I love structure and I also appreciate a nice list. Therefore, I have made a list that includes the phases of my journey and thought you may like to know the process. For the most part, this is a list of "to-do's" that many of you may need to do yourself and some of these things I was not aware needed to be done in order to get braces put on. Which, as a result, made it take longer than anticipated to have the braces put on. Phase One: Pre-Orthodontic Dental Care
Phase Two: Pre-Surgery Orthodontics
Phase Three: Surgery
Phase Four: Post-Surgery Orthodontics
Phase Five: Whitening
