It's now been 2 months since I got braces. I am getting a lot more used to eating and my brushing/flossing routine than before, although after tomorrow it is going to change some. During these 1st 2 months Ive only had the wire going across the front six teeth due to getting extractions and spacers. So brushing and flossing my teeth have only been a challenge on those teeth. After tomorrow I will not only have the brackets and a thicker wire going across all my top teeth, I will also have bands put in and power chains to close the extraction areas. I am sure this is going to be painful and make it more difficult to eat and brush/floss my teeth than before. But I am sure I will get used to it and I have to keep remembering it will all be worth it in the end. I am posting my 2 month photos below. Sorry for the not so pretty teeth pics, but they are a work in progress. I can really see that my one front tooth that was turned almost sideways has straightened out quite a bit. You can also see a small space between my front two teeth. I cant wait until my "snaggle" tooth finally gets a wire on it and can start coming down into place. Not sure when that will take place though. My appointment is tomorrow at 2:00pm. I will post pics showing the difference before my appointment to after. This way I can show you exactly what they did differently.
