and I have to say that it has just flown by.

If the next 23-29 months go just as fast, this will be over before I know it!

Same here...monday will be my 5th week and I've had my first adjustment this past monday...I don't really find it went by quickly though lol. It's nice that I am 1 month closer to the finish line but the thought that there are still so many months to go...brushing my teeth 5-6 times a day for another 23 months...oh my goodness!! ;)

:) I'm probably a little neurotic, but I'm totally getting a kick out of the dental routine...

Of course - I had the worst dental habits prior to being braced, I brushed once a day and flossed maybe once a week.

So it's kinda like playing grown up now. :)

My husband thinks its funny how neurotic I have become about dental hygiene. Me with my waterpik, sonicare, prescription fluoride toothpaste, and superfloss.
