Braces: Fifth Adjustment (Week 32)

February 20, 2019February 20, 2019Leave a comment

It feels so recent that I posted my last update! But I'm having another adjustment so here's another update. In this adjustment my orthodontist changed the wire on my bottom teeth. I didn't see my usual orthodontist, but the one I saw was so lovely! She had planned on changing the wire to a bigger … Continue reading Braces: Fifth Adjustment (Week 32)

Braces: Fourth Adjustment (27 Weeks)

January 23, 2019January 23, 2019Leave a comment

It's been a little while since I last saw my Orthodontist. Partly due to Christmas. And due to the length of time needed for my teeth to actually move. Last time I saw my Orthodontist he put a metal spring along one side of my bottom teeth to push one of my teeth into the … Continue reading Braces: Fourth Adjustment (27 Weeks)

6 Months of Braces

December 26, 2018January 14, 2019Leave a comment

So in the last 6 months, I had 4 teeth taken out and ceramic orthodontic braces fitted. And I am so impressed with the progress so far! I thought it might be worth putting together what I have learnt/found so far. Keeping your teeth clean is a task! Before braces my dentist would always comment … Continue reading 6 Months of Braces

Braces: Third Adjustment (18 Weeks)

November 7, 2018January 16, 2019Leave a comment

I cannot believe that I've only had my braces on for 18 weeks! The changes have been so fast, and I cannot believe how quickly they are improving. Someone at work actually mistakenly thought that I'd had my braces taken off already...now granted, she usually wears glasses and didn't have them on, but that's still … Continue reading Braces: Third Adjustment (18 Weeks)

I have been waiting and waiting to post this. This is 6 weeks after getting my ceramic braces put onto my teeth...and my first update. I am going to try to do an update every time I have my brace adjusted to try and keep anyone who is thinking about getting braces, another reason to … Continue reading Braces: First Adjustment (6 weeks)

What’s in my Bag: Braces Edition

July 11, 2018September 12, 2018Leave a comment

I've had my brace on for a month and I thought I'd share what I carry around with me. All these products are the ones that my orthodontist suggested that I use, so if your orthodontist says something different, then go by that. But if you are about to get braces, or are doing some … Continue reading What’s in my Bag: Braces Edition

Braces: The Preparation and Appointments

June 6, 2018September 12, 2018Leave a comment

So...I am getting orthodontic braces! And I am getting them put on tomorrow. My First Official Appointment: My first appointment once I confirmed that I wanted braces was to get some elastic bands put around two of my teeth. These bands are put in to create space because I am going to have two brackets … Continue reading Braces: The Preparation and Appointments

Braces: What I’m getting and Why…

May 30, 2018September 12, 20182 Comments

So...I am getting orthodontic braces! For years I have wanted them. I was offered braces when I was a child. The orthodontist told me that my brace would be for purely cosmetic reasons so I could choose whether to have them or not. Unfortunately I had a bad, bad experience (I'm not being dramatic - … Continue reading Braces: What I’m getting and Why…
