Hi!
No new pictures for this week. Everything is still the same. I'll take some on Monday after my 13th Adjustment. (Hoping I'm not asking for pain) But I'm honestly ready for this next adjustment. I just want to see movement again. lol Tired of looking at my teeth and not seeing progress. (I probably shouldn't look at my teeth constantly) I'm even hoping to start elastics again. I just want to see changes!
One thing I have noticed is that my 1st molars are a bit loose and they're making the creak, creak, creak sound again. It's pretty amusing and of course, I can't help but do it more. Does that make me weird?
Oh well, that's all for now!
Bye!

Week 76
Hi!
Yes, I know I skipped 75 but I just didn't feel like there was any progress... so no pictures for last week.
I still don't really know if I'm going to take pictures for this week because everything still looks the same.
I was bold yesterday! I was eating pizza and got tired of having to cut my pizza up with my fork, so I picked the pizza up and used my front teeth and bit into it. I didn't have any problems, since the pizza was pretty soft..
But I tried to eat a toasted bagel without tearing it into smaller pieces and that didn't work.. it actually kind of hurt.. and I had to check and make sure I didn't break anything because I kind of felt my brackets give just a little. lol Oops.
Oh well, one of these days, I'll be able to eat like an unbraced person again. :p
My adjustment is getting closer and closer, only thing I know is that my brackets will be repositioned. So I'll get to see what debracing is going to be like. But, I'll also have a date with the spreaders... I HATE those things....
Ok, rambling complete.
Later!

Week 74
Hi!
Well I'm a bit sad because my phone decided to be a butthole and delete all of my pictures, so the pictures that I was supposed to add to my blog for the last 4 weeks are gone. :( So I'll just have to start over with new pictures.
Anyway, I really don't have any news. As far as I can tell, I'm still at a standstill.
Finally at the slow part of my treatment and I don't like it. But the cool thing is, I only have about a year until my braces come off! :)
Well that's all for now.

As promised, here are my pictures.
I think it's amazing how one side can look better than the other.
My left side looks really good but my right side still needs a lot of work. lol

Week 73: Nothing New
Merry Belated Christmas!
I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas! :) I have to admit, I ate way too many sweets. lol! (I made sure to brush a lot) But they were oh so good!
I really don't have anything tooth related, my teeth are pretty much in the same state as last week. I hardly had any pain last week, so I enjoyed my birthday dinner. :D But that's about it.
Maybe I'll have some new to report next week.
Happy New Year!

Week 72: Adjustment 12
Hi!
So this adjustment wasn't that bad. My ortho was going to try to give me a new wire for my lowers (17x25 stainless steel) But my 6 and 7's still aren't straight enough for the new wire. I mainly just had my powerchains changed and was told to stop wearing elastics for now. :D So I'm a bit happy that I don't have to worry about elastics.
I was told at my next adjustment, I'm going to have an x ray taken and then they might reposition some of my brackets, that sounds fun.
It was a pretty short and painless adjustment, which I like, especially after being in so much pain from my 11th adjustment.
That's all for now.
Bye

Week 71: A Couple Changes
Hi!
Been a bit busy but I finally had a little time to make a new post. :)
Anywho, I was looking at my right side and it's really starting to look good. There's still gaps but they're smaller. I also notice whenever I open my mouth my lowers don't look as slanted as they used to. My lower right side always looked lower than the lower left side and since I've been wearing rubber bands, and my teeth are moving, it's being corrected.
So I at least have something new to report. :p Oh and my 12th adjustment is almost here, so we'll see what kind of torture it's going to happen this next go round.. Makes me wonder if my ortho is going to start putting bends in my wire..
Just as long as I can eat by next Friday, since that's my birthday and I want to be able to enjoy my birthday dinner. lol!
I'll add pictures soon, I promise. Pictures were deleted :(
Later!

Week 70: Happy 16 Monthiversary!
Time is really moving! I will be out of braces before I know it. :D That makes me happy, especially on days like today where my elastics are rubbing the %$&* out of my mouth.. I wish there was a way to have some relief. Just driving me bonkers. Not only that, but I've been having issues with keeping my double elastic on my hook. I'll hook both the elastics on my puny hook and then before I know it, it snaps off the hook. So I'm going to have to have my ortho put me some real hooks on my braces.
Anywho, besides those little hiccups, everything else is going good teeth wise. I really can't tell if anything has moved for this week, and if it has, then it's probably only a tiny amount. My next adjustment is quickly approaching and I don't know what's going to happen this go round. Hopefully, it won't be too painful, that last adjustment was something else...
That's all for now.
Bye!
