Ive had 10 teeth taken out within
the past few years..
6 baby teeth and 4 adults..
I never really looked too far into
extractions and what-not, I just
figured you got some teeth pulled.
Well, I went to my ortho a while
back and he had mentioned that
because i have a rather round
face ill need a broad smile to even
everything out..
Ive been smiling lately trying to
imagine myself without these gadgets
on my teeth and i notice that i dont
have a broad smile at all.. and my
small teeth dont help with the matter..
[the teeth that i had extracted have
not come in yet, but i try to imagine them
there, where the gaps are..] and still
not a pretty smile..
im not even sure why im posting or
if i even have a reason too.. maybe i
just needed to vent.. maybe im just
frustrated..
sometimes i regret getting braces..
but others i prance around feeling
like this is the best thing ive ever
done!
i guess right now im feeling a little
depressed about everything..
the first time i walked into the orthos
office we talked and my mom was right
in there with me.. i soon found out that
i may have to have braces for as long
as 36 + months.. hes now estimated
that having the teeth extractions[which
i have been debating if i had made the
right choice about doing]he's now shortened
the time.. i think its now 26-28+ months..
