Week 119 with the Damon Braces

Summary: darn braces won't come off!


I just got back from my visit to the orthodontist. Even prior to going, I knew my braces weren't ready to be taken off. I am having a company party event next week and would have liked to have had a nice big smile without my braces. Now, that will not be possible. Heck, all the upcoming Christmas parties will be with my braces still on as my next appointment will be on the 20th of December and it probably takes about a week before the retainers are ready - so I'd be looking for December 27th (not taking into account it is the holiday season which would delay shipping).

During this visit, the ortho made some small adjustments to the same wire to close the small gap I still have between my molars. He also made a small adjustment to my upper front teeth but I can't tell what it was. Another thing he did was to file down the ridges behind my upper front teeth as my lower teeth were hitting into them. After that, my bite felt sooooo much better…

Cheers to the holidays with braces! :(

Week 114 Pictures

Summary: Pictures from week 114.

My next appointment will be in November 28th and I am hoping that will be my second to last appointment. I was supposed to have it next Monday but I am out on vacation for 2 weeks so I had to reschedule :(. Hopefully I'll be done by mid December and will be able to have a good smile for the holidays! I can almost feel it is as good as it will get but I know there are some more small adjustments to make.
