Life's little surprises...

#1 Post by Guest »

Well, getting braces has been a different life experience. Just wanted to share with you the joy of the rinse.

I have been good about eating soft foods the first few days. Macaroni and cheese, soup, cooked carrots, etc. Well last night I decided to include some beets and peas as side dishes. Dinner went down smooth, no problems. Being a good, and new inductee to the Metal Mouth Hall of Fame, I got up from dinner to go clean my teeth. The first round of rinsing brought out the usual little pieces of left over food. Well, I tell you, the second, was a site that made me laugh. OUT pops this WHOLE pea. I can't even begin to tell you where that little guy was hiding. That experience drove home to me the importance of cleaning my teeth right away, especially if I am in public. I can just imagine going to a meeting, smiling and having everyone looking at me trying to ignore this BIG GREEN thing on my teeth! :frogbraces:

That is so funny, It is amazing how much food can be stored in and around the hardware. At least if we are ever stranded away from food for days we won't starve!! :HugeGrin:
BE HAPPY!

Yes, and not matter how many times you swish your mouth out, there's always little specs of food left, I try to not leave it too long before I reach for my toothbrush in that instance. :o
