41 y/o. Round two in braces

#1 Post by FelixLaPoubelle »

Hi everybody-

I was living in relative orthodontic bliss after having worn braces as a teenager for 5 years. Few years ago, I had my wisdom teeth removed, that caused some minor spreading, which in turn led to a baby bicuspid which had never fallen out coming loose and later falling out. Dragged my feet on getting an implant and the front uppers drifted apart. Fast forward to last monday, and I'm back in braces. Lowers and bite blockers go on next week. I know it will get better, but right now this sucks. Looking forward to commiserating with all you metal mouths during this process.
