Pizza Meltdown.

Today I had my separators out. 😁 But they will only be out for a couple of weeks while my dentist is on holiday and then put back in a few days before the nance arch is fitted.

I had a scan for my nance arch today. This is a nance arch.
It is put in place to prevent the back molars moving forward and stays in place for the duration of the fixed braces. The scan was pretty cool. They used a camera to create a 3D image of my upper teeth. Although, it made me realise just how bad my teeth are....😔

While I have no separators in and while I wait for my braces to be fixed I'm going to enjoy all the foods I won't be allowed for the next 12-18 months!! 

Would you believe I won't be allowed pizza?!? PIZZA!!! The crust will be too crunchy and the tomato base will stain the ceramic braces. Imagine not being able to have pizza.... I get 33% off in Dominos and it will be wasted. WASTED!! and just to really rub salt into the wound...they have just opened a Little Wings in my town! SERIOUSLY?! 
I also won't be allowed curry. It will stain my braces too. I LOVE Indian food! How is this fair?! What am I meant to order when I want a takeaway?! No pizza...no Indian....😭And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse....I won't be allowed RED WINE!!!! I am so irrationally angry. No red wine. For 18 months!!! 

I'm off to eat chewy sweets, nachos, drink wine and question my life choices! 💁😆

Adult Braces: 2 Month Update.

Hi Guys! Just a wee post to let you's know how I've been getting on since my braces were tightened. They were tightened 2 weeks ago and I've had my braces on now for 2 months! It's crazy that it has been 2 months already... Here are some pictures that were taken today... Left side  Right side My teeth are looking really straight from the front but one tooth is slightly longer than the other 😂 My dentist will use filler to make them the same length. This has happened because of the way my teeth crossed over each other.  I have a lot of gaps in between my teeth at the sides from how my teeth have been moving. As they continue to move, the gaps will close.  I have experienced more pain since the braces were tightened. My teeth feel loose and the gums feel tender. Sometimes it's sore to brush my teeth! I assume this is just from the teeth moving. I have found that I can't bite down into any food...even soft foods. I ...

Adult Braces: 5/6 Months!

Okay so before I start my 6 month update...I didn't post a blog for a 5 month update so here it goes... 5 Month Update...  My braces were tightened at the end of January. It was at this visit that the power chain finally came off!! 🎉 So happy! The main aim from this session was to rotate a tooth at each side. These were teeth that would have been at the front but are now moving to the side and need to be turned to face that way. This meant that there was no noticeable change elsewhere. I had pain for the first couple of days after but that was it. I also had a visit to the hygienist during this time too. In the past I have found these sessions pretty unbearable and was really dreading how my teeth would handle it with braces. However, it was actually fine!  6 Month Update!  Yesterday I had my braces tightened once again! The teeth that were being rotated from the last session ...

Adult Braces: 9 Months

Okay so I know this is really late.. Moving house is very stressful and seems to have taken over my life the last few months 🙈😂 My last post was 5/6 months.. It's now 9 months. So I had an appointment around 7 months and I had my braces tightened because there was still a gap between 2 of my teeth on the left side. I was told once this gap closed that would be me ready to get my braces off!! After 6 weeks I was back again and that was me ready for my braces to come off. They took moulds for my permanent retainer. This is a wire that goes across the back of the teeth and is extra support to prevent your teeth from moving. I was back at the dentist yesterday and my braces came off!! 🙌It's not sore getting them off. The dentist pops them off one at a time. There's a little pressure but no pain.  They then have to get all the glue off. Again this doesn't hurt! I have my permanent retainer on but I don't have my...
