LizzyG I feel for you...

I am getting braced the day after you on the 11th with upper and lowers.

I have my four extractions this Friday the 3rd and oh my god... I am so NERVOUS! It will just be done with a local and I talked to my dentist on the weekend and he has scheduled me in for 2 hours....2 HOURS! :soremouth:

I get my spacers on the Monday between the extractions and braces. I just wish I could warp two weeks from now to when the braces will be on.

Yeepers, I would be nervous to. I had my four wisdom teeth extracted, and it was nothing. However, I was put under for it. Just stayed home for a couple of days. Felt no pain. I couldn't imagine being away for it. Perhaps you can request to be put under?

My brace date is February 8th! I'm actually looking forward to it--I was supposed to be braced on 1/13 but had to put it off due to an unexpected molar root canal and tooth infection. I'm having the crown for that tooth permanently seated tomorrow.

Good luck to everyone getting braced in February!
Uppers placed 2/8/06--Inspire ICE ceramics
Lower (stainless) placed 2/23/06
Treatment time: 17 months (estimated was 12-18 months)
Debonded: July 11th, 2007
Next appointment: June 2008 for retainer & nightguard check

February 13th for me, too, and the 6th is my appointment where they discuss the treatment plan. Hopefully I'll get spacers in on that day, or SOMETHING. The sitting around and waiting while nothing happens is killing me!!!
