Introduce yourself here.
I seem to be doing much better, already feels like I have been in my braces for a long time, no problems. I haven't even had my first adjustment yet, but I have not had to use wax or had any mouth sores, I am so happy about that. What I cant stand is eating, It seems like such a process to get all the food out from around the brackets. It defiantly is a good way to not eat so many sweets because after one cookie I am like that is it, I just want to get them clean again. I still have a hard time ...
Ok so on 9/15/11 I went in for my braces appointment. When I first got there they took several pictures of my face, smile, teeth, etc, they made molds of my teeth which did not bother me like it did some people because I have had these done before when getting a night guard made, I knew what to expect. My advice is don't think about it and breath through your nose it only takes a minute each time. After this they went ahead and started to fit me for my molar bands, this was NOT fun for me at all! ...
