So today I got some pretty good news from the orthodontist. After two months, my rubber bands are off! I know that's totally like, not long at all. Not long at at compared to other people, I mean. I guess it wasn't a huge problem to fix, but honestly, it might just me but it looks like my teeth aren't fully aligned. I mean, my jaw is pretty screwed up. Some days, in some lighting, my teeth look perfectly aligned, and other times it looks like nothing ever even moved. And it's also probably how I close my jaw because there's like 3 ways I close it, it's really confusing.. and the natural way I let my jaw close, it looks like my teeth aren't even aligned. ugh this is gonna bug me so much, even though I shouldn't let it bug me and just be happy, 'cause my orthodontist told me that we are getting close! In fact, I have to go to the next city over 'cause that's where they are located, so they readjust my bottom brackets. But when he said were getting close, I nearly died lol, I'm just so happy. After my bottom teeth straighten out more, I'm all done! Plus I did get my top braces on like almost 6 months before I got my bottom ones on, so that explains why my top teeth are completely straight, but my bottoms are still crooked. The front ones at least. In a way I wish I would have gotten them on at the same time, since they'd be even closer by now, but that's okay.
I'm just gonna go ahead and tell you guys my braces story.. when I was at the dentist once, they told my mom that I had to get braces for approximately 2 years. I cried my eyes out, I was so stupid, I was actually thinking that I'd rather keep my horrendous crooked teeth with my freaking eye tooth that grew on top of another tooth, instead of having braces. But i pretty young then too. I'm actually so grateful to have gotten my braces then, and not this year. But honestly, the time went by so fast. I know I'm talking like I already got my braces off, but geez just imagine me when they tell me I have a month left. I'm gonna be freaking out like crazy! I can't wait for that day. I got my braces on during the summer, so I'm thinking they will be done by this summer too. I'm just so excited.
