Hi Ken :-1

Your teeth are looking so great, you must be super please with how things are going, (apart from the impending tongue torture device, i hope that it isnt going to be too bad for you).

Wow your cars are beautiful. We dont really see cars like that over where i live in England so its nice to have seen yours.

Hope things keep going well.

All the best

Hi Ken!
Your teeth are looking absolutely great! I'm crossing my fingers that those pesky gaps close up quickly for you!

Nice rides man! :D

Do you ever go out to Kil Kare? I dont know what part of Ohio you're from but I used to hang out at that track at least once a week. It's like the only cool thing to do around me anymore. :lol:

Great progress Ken. :D

Hey Ken

My husbands mustang is an 88.. hes been working on it forever and its no where near being done but he likes doing it..

I hope you enjoyed those few hours where your teeth were free! I bet it felt different though you do get used to all of this crap they put in our mouthes.. I know even when they took my expander off.. instantly I could feel a difference.. and instantly I felt a difference when they put it back on..

Glad to hear all is well and orange is a great colour for summer.. :D

off topic: how do you edit your story thread to update the title? maybe im dense but I cant see where I do it.. I can even see how to edit a post if I wanted to? :lol:

Ken, it's there! I see it!

I was just thinking about how BIZARRE it must have felt for you to have your teeth unbound like that for several hours? I'm glad to hear your dentist gave you good feedback. That must be a relief!

Don't suppose you've got a pic of your chicklets now?

Hi, Ken, I've been reading your story. Your teeth are looking very good already. They must be quite stubborn, though, as I've also had gum problems and my ortho said teeth generally move fast after gum disease because of lack of bone (but maybe, unlike me, you've been lucky enough to keep lots of that..). I love your pics of your cars, too.
I see you come from Ohio. I'm a bit ignorant on US geography and not quite sure where that is (midwest?) BUT I'm going to the States in the summer (very excited as only visited once, and that as a child) and wonder whether I'll see any other other adult brace faces (haven't seen any so far in the UK) ?
I also liked the way your story flows along, as I've just written random posts. Way back it looks like you worked out how to link bits together. Might have a go at that, too..

Hi Ken, I just looking at putting my random posts together and it looks like you might know the answer to this... If I click on the edit button of the first post I understand I can change the title of the piece, but how can I get my posts to run together (ie pages 1, 2 etc.,)? Or will they all go together once I've given them the same title?
Any advice from this stupid Brit would be appreciated...!

My dad used to have a '74 Chevy Nova, boy do I miss it!!!! I remember getting in and out of that death trap. I constantly smelled of gasoline... I wish my dad had kept it instead of selling it.
