Helloo ! This week went by superrrr fast, i'm already forgetting I have braces on ! I'm getting better at eating solid foods and my lisp is almost gone. Had a bit of pain on random occasions but I guess that means they're working haha. It's super sunny outside so i'm making a quick post and I have a few update photos. There seems to have been movement on the bottom, the top seems to be the same but hey, it's only day 14 ! Have a great day everyone xxxx ...
Hello everyone ! I'm not entirely new to the forum, I've been checking it daily and watching everyone's progress and thoughts and thought I might start my own blog as soon as I had my braces installed. I've needed braces since I was 14, but could only start affording them this year. (I'm 20 now) I went in for a consult mid-April because of severe crowding and an overbite.
