Okay, so I decided that I wanted to keep a blog to see the progress my tiny wittle teeth have made. I wanted to do it a long time ago but I'm so busy that I've never had a chance to set it up!
I've had the braces for almost 3 months now. I got the toppers on July 1. Here are some pictures of the first go 'round. I only got them on the top and I went to for purple nurple:
as you can see, the teeth on either side of my front 2 are pretty screwed. you can see how bent the wire is.
here you can see how all my teeth are inverted towards the inside of my mouth.
notice again how the small tooth is up pretty high.
these pics are from 2 weeks later, still before the first adjustment. both small teeth on either side of the front two have come down and the wire has straightened out. (You can really see how crooked the bottom teeth are.)So there are the first pics! To my surprise, it only took 20 minutes to get them on! They were pretty painful, I have to say, but nothing I couldn't handle. Just really hard to chew! It felt like my teeth were loose. They cut up my mouth the first week or two, but the wax was my best friend and I guess my mouth just got used to it.
I got my first adjustment August 19. It was not what I expected! For a while there, I had wire sticking out of my mouth every which way. It didn't really hurt at all. Just a little uncomfortable.
I went with hot pink and hot green to spice things up a bit. Same size wire.
It was so crazy because I had no pain whatsoever after the adjustment.
My next appointment is October 14 and I will get spacers. I'll wear them for one week, and then I'll get the bottoms on October 20.
From now on, I'll only post on the day of my appointments. I'm excited to see progress! :)
