Haha, I chronicled the entire day of getting braces with my little digital camera. From the drive there, to getting the braces...I took some fun pics! The doc was super cool when I told him I brought a camera and wanted to chronicle everything. He loved idea and took some pics himself during the process. Then some tech-girls came over and they were goofing around with the camera. It was quite funny!
I am loving my new braces. I'm super-fly now with my Damons
Drive Thru: "Yes, I'll take one perfect smile to go please..."
hahaha. I'm excited. Can you tell? Alright back to work. I will post some pics, thoughts on everything and notes on the procedure as it happened step-by-step, later on tonight! It will be a story of sorts straight from chrome-boy
What a great idea Michael, a perfect way to capture your exciting day. I can't wait to see your photos. And it sounds like you have an fun Orthodontist. That was cool of him to help you out with your photos.
Braced years ago, now I am braced again! Crossing fingers this time around.
Damon 3s on 6 of top front teeth. Damon 3MX on all the rest.
Yes I had a good time today recording the venture! I'm putting together the blog (part I of many) right now and will post soon over in the other forum for stories.
So far no pain and it's been about 11 hours since I got them on.
Just call me CHROME from now on. I'm pretty sure a few cars that were coming the other way were swerving because of the glare of my new braces...these things are super shiny!...hahaha
I get my braces tomorrow and am very excited. I like the idea of taking pics of it, maybe I'll do that. I'll finally have a reason to smile, to show off my braces. 1 order of shiny metal mouth please.
