Well my braced friends....as you can see by my pictures....I....yes I received a power chain yesterday. A very loooooonnnnnngggggg powerchain. At least I think that's a power-chain. Or a chainsaw, or a powersawchain. Whatever it is, it's long.....and a pain in arss to clean under. Yep, after almost a year...I now have a little added flavor to my look. Sexy, ain't it?
So I had an adjustment yesterday. Coming up on my 1 year mark at the end of this month. On one hand, really glad to have a year under my belt....on the other....christallfriday why haven't these things moved more!!!!!
I got a new girl yesterday. Never seen her before, but I must say...she was wonderful!! Just spiffy. Be happy to have her hands in my mouth anytime.

Mr. Happy Pants came over and the usual..."open...shut...open....shut....hmmmm???...open again.....shut again"...but this time instead of the, "ok, lig her up and get her out"....it was "so, what have you decided on the jaw surgery?"....
Was not, prepared for that. Nope..wasn't. So, I was like, well....I most defenitily need to be mulling things over with a surgeon and weighing all my options before I jump into that route...to which he was like...well, the time's now....so let me refer you to one and get on the ball. If I go the jaw surgery route treatment is one way.....If I don't...treatment is a whole different ball of yarn I guess..... "yes sir".
So, I have an appointment to go and speak with the surgeon later this month. Me...not....happy. Me...scared. Very, scared. Like a little school girl!!!
Anyway, he also informed me that my uppers were about the slowest moving teeth he'd ever seen. (gee, lucky me) and that he was going to put a heavier wire on, I want to say he said is was rectangular....but don't quote me on that....and that the pressure would be much greater...and then....then I heard the words......"and power chain her"..."those bottoms are getting ready"....

Ready? Ready for what? Me love my bottom teeth.....please be nice to them. I actually was waiting for him to ask about when I was looking to start the implant route....but he didn't. I'm just as freaked about that....as I am about a jaw surgery. I'm going to start getting liquored up before my adjustments now. My "hoe humm" time is coming to an end. Now the hard parts are coming up.
Anyway.....I sure didn't expect to see this long ol power-chain...is this normal? I thought they were little. Like, over 2 teeth, not 15. Should I be scared? Concerned? Why.....have my teeth been naughty? Love the color though. Holy crap is it an awesome color. For some reason, I can't get my camera to show the right "lighting" so everything looks kinda orangish, yellowish,.....anyway.....in reality.....this teal color is so frickin awesome and somewhat florescent....it makes my teeth look supper....dupper white......my kids were like...whoa did you get your teeth whitened? I was like...I wish...but no. Love them to death! I'll probably do this color 100 times more.
Anywho...today my uppers are pretty sensitive. I woke up this morning and all my top teeth ached pretty good. Hard to chew too. My bottoms....nothing. No change. Can't even tell I have this thing on them....so hopefully...that will last. Very strange to see this running all along my bottom teeth. Holy cow....could you imagine if I would have gotten black!!!????

Here I would have thought it only went over 2 teeth and it's going all along my bottoms......ohh...that would have been sca....reee!
