This is the day i will finally get braces!
It all started from the retainers to fix my overbite in yr 7 but giving up half way because it was widening my gap between my front too teeth and being too painful. Then deciding that i will go through my high school years without braces because i wanted my pictures to be brace-free.
Then going to japan for 10 months i became more conscious about my bite and gap so i decided i would get braces as soon as i got home.
So i booked my appointment, got the x-rays, had my appointment… it all came down to whether or not i would be able to deal with the pain during the HSC… “the most important year of your life”. Since i also needed to get my wisdom teeth out, i decided to postpone it till after completing high school.
Finally, i booked my appointment to see my oral surgeon and got my wisdom teeth out. The pain wasnt that bad at all if any at all… maybe it was the drugs tho. So maybe i was just being a sissy all those years.
Now the wait is over. The mould has been set and now im ready to start thinking of what colours i want for my braces when i get them on!
