LilE's teeth...
The little man has so many tooth problems. First being he has an extra tooth. This tooth pushedalhis teeth out of line when he was smaller. This has caused the adult teeth to notbe in line with the roots of the babay teeth. So the other two teeth that need pulling are having to be pulled because the adult teeth have come in (parthially) behind his babys. This has crowded his mouth even more. The back part of his mouth looks somewhat shark-like. Teethpulling is on the 22nd of this month. This has slowed down the brackets being put on. The orthodontist commented to me that the straightening will probably take longer because she noticed thatone of the teeth came in sideways and has to be turned for proper eating.

So sorry. Sounds like a long uncomfortable process. How old is he?
Poor kid. My nephew had to have a tooth pulled when he was young, for this exact reason. We have a family of small mouths, contrary to popular opinion, lol.
