Yeah so the past few days have been brutal, pretty much nothing but soup broth and store-brand slim-fast. even hurts to eat smushed up banannas still :-/

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDGE. Anyone want to pre-chew some food for me!? :(. So glad I got that burger in yesterday...been tryig for 15 minutes to eat a bowl of soggy cereal and just can't take the pain...tried eating a banana....about to squeeze it into a paste and drink it. *sigh*, time to g...

I know it says to not include pictures of yourself, just your teeth but my pictures are public on my facebook and im highly doubt someone will want to use these for anything dirty so I hope its ok for me to post these...just wanted to share some pictures of me doing the things I love. http://a2.spho...

yeah I also never flossed before but when I went in to get my braces put on they did my first dental exam in over 5 years and found out I didn't have any cavities but I had gum disease so had to get that treated first. I really want to get a waterpick after trying to eat a burger yesterday but will ...

I always thought I drew the short stick when it came to my teeth but I think most people have a lot of issues with them we just always single ourselves out because most of them probably had tons of dental work done when they were younger and have had perfect smiles ever since. I know I haven't been ...

Best of luck on your journey with College as well as your braces. I also had severe overcrowding but im glad I waited until I was older because when my wisdom teeth came in I had 5 and they made things even worse.

*sigh* mine were over $5k here in Texas...$4k after insurance but im pretty sure they use the cheapest ones possible :-/. Really should have shopped around a bit more but my Insurance is so limited I didn't want to mess with it.

HOLY MOTHERLESS GOATS BATMAN. So for starters wow they are expensive. So I got my uppers on today, they said they have to round them out a bit more before they put the bottoms on because my overbite is so bad id just tear them off. The spacers were pretty bad going in but the worst part was when the...

Went in today to get braces but the dentist found some issues with my gums so treated me for that and bumped back the appointment 2 weeks. Not looking forward to the expirience but I have multiple teeth that are really crooked and make it almost impossible to floss so looking forward to the results.
