wow. Three weeks to go! I got a few more wire tweeks earlier this week with instructions to come back in two for the fine check before debonding. New power chains all round but no other elastics. Got to admit when I smile I'm impressed.
chef got the tpa out and those big square wires installed. Another year for him. But he doesn't lisp anymore.
Getting kinda excited to eat salad without wearing half of it, to be able to floss in a minute instead of 15! I'll be able to have all kinds of new speech problems with retainers. I can hardly wait.
seriously, we have never had a food issue with braces. The only food I didn't like to tackle was apples even cut small. Just no fun. But in a few weeks !!! (I'll have to eat them in the basement corner alone.!!)
