Finally!!

I got braced this morning. The entire appointment took about an hour. My teeth don't hurt yet (knock on wood), but I will take a Motrin soon, just in case. I'm SO happy to finally be in braces.

Here's a picture...

Can't wait until they start moving...

Oh...and that lovely office had DMB playing during my entire visit!

Your braces look great! They only put my uppers on today and left the wire off until next week when they put on my expanders. I look kinda weird right now. Since I don't have a wire, I have no pain (but they did put my spacers back in---grrrr). I hope you don't have too much pain today. Good luck!

I'm doing pretty well with them so far, but shouldn't they have moved by now? They've been on for two hours, for goodness sake.

:wink:

Congrads on getting braced. Yeah, it's pretty normal not feeling much pain the first day, just pressure. But tomorrow and probably the day after that, then the pain sets in a bit. Awesome that you got to listen to Dave the whole time, I usually have to sit through some sleepy time elevator tunes.
