Week 93: A Little Movement and Snapping Elastics..

Morning!

I've been noticing that when I have my elastics in, that my gaps on the right side are a lot smaller but once I take the elastics out, it seems like the gaps open back up. So hopefully, with religious elastic wear, the gaps will close all the way and stay that way.

My gap between my two front teeth is shrinking too and my upper midline is slowly moving towards the center to meet my lower midline.

I've also been having problems with my elastics snapping in my mouth. Whenever I yawn, they snap a little against my gums without breaking.. But they have also snapped and broke in my mouth a few times. My husband can usually hear when they snap and he looks at me with very wide eyes and says, Ouch! O.o

It is a bit painful when the elastics break but I just go and put a new pair in and I've just been trying to not yawn as wide. lol

That's about all the news I have.

Dental Cleaning and 21 Months

Hi!

Dental cleaning went really, really well. The dental hygenist only had to scrap my teeth a little, she told me that I have the cleanest teeth she has ever seen in an orthodontic patient.  That made me happy. There were no cavities whatsoever and everything looked really great.

The only problem that the hygenist had was that my lowers were a bit tight and the floss kept shredding in between my teeth. Hoping that by the end of my treatment, I'll have a little bit of space to get the floss through.

So my prayer was answered and I had a clean bill of dental health. :)

I love the number 21.. I don't really know why but I just do. In 3 months, it will be 2 years in braces. Wow!

Hoping that I won't have much longer to go.


Will do a comparison soon.
