Braces and RPE: 6 Month Before and After. WOW
Posted: Sat Apr 02, 2011 1:15 am
Like many of you i would rarely smile in pictures enough to show my teeth, and if i did come across one it would look so terrible i would throw it out!! I've been slowly watching my teeth change in the last 6 months but it wasn't until my dentist showing me my before pictures that i went WOW!!!
i don't have a scanner so i had to take a pic of the dentist picture with my cellphone. Its hard to tell in the first photo but way obvious from the lower advantage point in the 2nd photo that my top teeth overlap my bottom. I also had a tooth that stuck out a bit right in front there.
Again sorry for the crappy cellphone pic but you can REALLY see the difference. I can SMILE big and not feel ashamed! If you are hesitating at all about getting braces DO NOT WAIT. You will only kick yourself later.
My Ortho has a book of some before and afters and he asked if he could put my progress in there and i said SURE!! I was so inspired by seeing someone else in his book with a dramatic change that i would LOVE to be that inspiration for someone else. If i get a copy of his 'after' pictures he took i'll post them here as well.
