Angela's braces story (and her brother's story)

My journey started 29 January 2007 (at 12 and a half) and ended 9 February 2009 (at 14 and a half). I had braces for 2 years, 11 days.

I got braces because of some crowding and a slight overbite.

    my next appointment is 3 September. That is in less than 2 weeks! So I came up with a list of questions and concerns:

    Is there any progress?
    That tooth is still rotated...
    Will the braces come off before April?
    What is there left to do?

  2. My Brother

    So my brother had a consult a few weeks ago, should have posted a blog about this earlier, but never got around to it.

    What will be done: Waiting. My parents insurance doesn't cover orthodontics. He will be re-evaluated in 6 months. If you look at his mouth, some teeth haven't grown in completely yet. What he could expect might change, but I'll keep you updated, sorry, no pics.

    What could he expect: 2 phase treatment
    Phase one: braces on upper front ...

  3. Rotadent toothbrush Review

    by on 07-09-2008 at 05:16 PM (Angela's braces story (and her brother's story))
    I got my Rotadent toothbrush today and here is my review of it.

    It felt like I was getting my teeth cleaned by a dentist. I don't usually use an electric toothbrush, but I like this one. At first I was laughing so much because it tickled. I liked it though! No complaints about the brush itself! But I did find it weird that the place where you plug in the charger for the brush is on the bottom of the handle.

  4. 1 July Update

    Well, I was taking a cruise to Alaska. I left Vancouver on 22 June and came back to Vancouver on 29 June. So I felt like that weird tooth was moving... Seems like it did. Oh yeah and that wire is poking me. I put up with it, and it didn't bother me much. The adjustment is tomorrow, probably gonna be the same old same old. Oh yeah, and hopefully I won't be in pain.
