3 Months of Braces


  I cannot even believe that I have actually had my braces on for 3 months already! It was a VERY difficult adjustment and in the beginning I kept thinking 'how could a person EVER get used to this- IT'S HORRIBLE!' And now I have to say...that I am pretty used to them, they removed that garish coil and now if I stand back far enough for pictures you can't even tell that I have them since I opted to get the clear braces on top.

  Having braces is a pain in the butt! It's hard to eat, taking care of them is labor intensive, and of course there is the expense but when I look at these before and after pics of JUST 3 MONTHS--- it makes it all worth it!

CAN YOU BELIEVE THE DIFFERENCE!!! In the beginning I thought this was a mistake but now I know it was worth it! Well, fingers crossed all continues to go well!!!


(Side note....they are not painful at all, at times a little uncomfortable but never 'painful' which I did not expect because I hear people complain about the intense pain of having your wires changed....but then again most people who have had braces are teenagers who have not had c-sections or any other major surgeries)

  3. Wow, that really is a big difference!! Great that you finally chose to got them as no doubt when they are removed you will feel so much happier about your teeth than what you used to. They are looking great now and at least you have got on and done it rather than just talked about it. Some people talk about doing things but never do!

    Yay, to great teeth!xx

    1. That's totally how the 'idea' of my life list got started, I always got sick of people talking about things but never doing them so anytime I say "I wish I .... or I really ought to.... or we should..." I sign up or add it to the list and make it reality!
