So exciting!!! Enjoy some good food today, eat everything you love!! It will be a little bit before you can eat normal stuff!! Good luck on your journey!

im so excited everyone thinks im crazy i cant to get them on

i am having my fav dinner tonight but im not sure what to have tomorow, i think im going to stock up on soup and patatoes for mash

I can see where you're coming from because in a strange way I'm looking forward to beginning treatment and getting my braces on, if only to finally start after all of the anticipation and nervousness

I know how you feel! My appointment isn't until the 2nd week of April and I keep hoping they will call earlier. I want to get started

How have they been? I'm getting my spacers put in in 2 days and I don't know why, but I'm getting a wee bit nervous!

I can relate. I was so excited up until about an hour before my appointment. I got a bit nervous regarding my decision, but soon after they were on, I was excited again. I look forward to my appointments as well. I've had them for about 5 weeks now and am seeing progress. The excitement keeps on coming.

Congrats and best of luck!

Thanks for the support, I'll keep it in mind!

Other people must think we're all so weird to be excited about getting braces, huh?

The spacers were fine, no bother at all. I had to keep checking that they were still there! Molar bands have been a bit worse, with a bit of soreness on the cheeks and tongue, but i havent needed wax or painkillers or anything. I was nervous before the spacers went in, because i'd read a lot of posts that said they were the worst part of treatment and they hurt a lot, but inreality i had no pain at all. If that was the worst part of treatment, bring it on!

I got my brackets yesterday morning, followed by the extraction of a lower front tooth. Today I went in to reschedule wire installation and he took me right away. I am now braced in red...bottom only. Right now, the worst part is eating. I may have to go on a liquid diet.

I'm planning on that, both after my spacers and then after getting the braces on...
