how do I continue my posts so that you can see the previous posts too. I think I am just starting a new post each time. I'm a little confused! Is there a way to go back and add everything from before to this post?

WOW!!! You must be very proud of your teeth! They are certainly on the move! I'm at 3 weeks and I haven't noticed any movement. I have my 4 wisdom teeth removed in 2 1/2 weeks. I'm sure they'll be able to do their thing once they have a little more room! Your pictures are definately inspiring. Keep ...

Sounds like you are doing great so far. I have Damons too. I'm just over 2 weeks in and sometimes I even forget they're there! I am surprised you were able to floss so soon. For the first week or so mine hurt to floss and right now, some of the teeth are so tight that I can't get the floss in there....

My daughter is so cute! She is 2 1/2 and she loves my braces! She keeps pointing them out and saying that she wants some too! If she only knew what a pain they are right now. I told her if she needs them when she is a big girl, she can have some too. Now she can't wait to be a big girl! :)

I got Damons. So no cool colors :( It does feel good to be on my way to a great smile! Knowing that I will never see my old teeth again feels great! I tried to put pics up, but was having difficulties. I'll try again later! Thanks for the congrats!

Well, It's been about 8 hrs. since having my braces put on and all is well. I have a little soreness inside my lips from the braces rubbing, but the wax does wonders! A few of my teeth are tender when I bite down, but not too bad. Hopefully, the next few days won't be as bad as I'm expecting them to...

Before and After ~ 1st day in braces

11:00~ Oh my goodness... I am SO stinkin nervous! I kinda know what to expect from reading everyone's stories, but I feel like I am going to implode with nervousness! When it's all over I will probably be saying, "that wasn't so bad, why did I get so worked up?" But I guess we'll see when ...

At least you had your extractions before brace day. I will be getting all 4 wisdom teeth extracted after my b-day. Someone else said that blood gets stuck in the wires. Yuck! Anyway... Only 4 sleeps left :lol: that's pretty funny! best of luck!
