Hi Jenni :-1

I know its late but Happy Birthday :-)o and congratulations on being braced.

Its great to see that you are so excited about it and i hope i can be excited like you when i get my braces. (sometime next month, hopefully wont have to wait too long). I'm excited now but im also nervous about how they are going to feel and what i will look like, but we'll just have to wait and see.

Im glad that you managed to have a nice birthday meal, ill have to remember that bok choi gets stuck. lol

Hope everything continues to go well for you

And Hannah, trust me at first it will be a little wierd, I thought to myself what the heck have I done but now its gettin better, After a week you start to get used to it. I am sure you will like it, and I was nervous too but its not as bad as you think.

Gosh darn it! I had another bracket popped off. Does anyone else have this problem?
Someone was arguing with me saying it is because I have damon 3’s and traditional brackets are stronger? I just think maybe the cement just didn’t hold as well….

But none the less I was off the the ortho once again. One good thing was he said I am very good with the teeth brushing. Its funny how my ortho works so much with kids, makes me feel little again cuz he is just used to talking to people like that..lol.

I also hope to have some pictures posted soon. :D

I had a molar tube that was metal and it just wouldn't hold. Granted it was on a porcelain crown, but still, it held up for 5 months or so and then it just refused. I wouldn't blame the bracket itself just yet. I think it's normal.
