| Smile Chronicles: Brace-Face Alert |
| Sunday, November 02, 2008 |
So I finally got my braces on. It was not as complicated or as painful as I expected but damn! its been hard enjoying my food. I have cut up all my food into little pieces, can't bite into anything with my front teeth, have to send all my food to the back teeth and I always feel like I have something lodged between my teeth (duh!) so I'm always sucking my teeth and trying to get phantom stuff out.
On the plus side, I have become better at taking care of my teeth. I brush twice daily and I floss. Gasp! Yes, I floss. And to think a couple of weeks ago, I didn't even know how to floss. But you know what they say ... practice makes perfect, so now I'm so much better at it and its easier for me to floss.
It does hurt sometimes and I have to put wax over the tooth responsible for making the inside of my mouth hurt. But right now, I have no regrets. I have always wanted to do this. |

| About Me |
|
Name: lala
Home: Memphis, Tennessee, United States
About Me: I'm an introvert. I love challenges and the "path less taken". I have discovered that life more of a journey than a destination so I try to enjoy each day. And if you've never failed at anything then you haven't tried anything outside your comfort zone. Right now, I have a love/hate relationship with Memphis. I love the city because the people are very friendly but careerwise, this place will be a dead end for me.
