well i knew this day would come. and i am happy it finally did. But my teeth feel awkward now. They don't have metal and small colored rubber bands to hide behind! Now i don't have metal and small colored rubber bands to hide behind! Ya wanna know why? BECAUSE MY BRACES ARE GONE! Last month when i made the appointment, my mom made one for today, and one on November 3rd. I thought this meant i was getting half of today and the other half of in November. But no. The November appointment is to pick up my retainer! ha! Silly me!
I walk into the orthodontist office, they seat me in one of those awkward chairs thingy-es and next thing i know the ortho has a drill in his hand and is drilling on the tops of my teeth!
Picture it, he has fangs, blood dripping from his lips, white sterile gloves with an awful odor on, and some kind of blood sucking drill in his hand! Horrifying right?
Ha good thing that’s not actually what he looked like. As it turns out, getting your braces taken off hurts less than brushing your teeth! To be honest I didn’t even know he was taking them off when he was taking them off {if that makes sense}.
Blessings.

scriptum: i wrote a story about a girl scout or "a modern day Canterbury tales
character". I will post my lovely story after i get it back from my teacher.
{don't judge! i wrote it in 5 minutes, as a class project}.
o and i have no idea why i have been titling all my posts with a "sigh"!
yay! did i tell you it wouldn't hurt? i should've. anyway, just make sure you wear your retainer -- my teeth went back to a little crooked after I forgot a few days in a row.
ReplyDeleteyeyyy!! I need to have braces :/ xx
ReplyDeleteha, it's been forever since i had braces but i totally remember when i got them off. didn't hurt at all! and i just remember that all i wanted to do was lick my smooth teeth. it's the best! just make sure to get those retainers quickly because your teeth are so anxious to move back into their old ways. no fun!
ReplyDeletecongrats girl!
