Braced up!
Had my lower braces put on last week with my lower molar bands cemented on a few days earlier. I had an ulcer on my left cheek due to the tube extension but it eventually went away. My cheeks are actually quite adaptive. Lol. =p My speech was slurred for the first day and my lower teeth stingily hurt for two days. (>__<) But so far, the pain has decreased though my right canine still stings a bit. I keep biting on it...wonder it was too high in the first place. =/ The only troublesome thing is that now I have to brush after every meal so it's 4 times a day. Never had I brush more than 2 before but eventually I'll get used to it. Got to admit that I'm a pretty adaptive person since I have few complaints about having braces on. So far I'm the lucky one without much pain. =p
The good thing about having your braces done in a dental school is that no one would give you the weird look and everyone is zealous about the braces. Lol. I'm the first in my batch to get my braces on and there is a string of others opting to get their teeth braced. =p Even the orthodontist said we were an enthusiastic bunch. Study dentistry and get an Ortho package as well. Hahaha. XD
Nerd mode complete! Hahaha. XD Man I have fish lips. (>__<)
Started Salsa class again and man had my stamina deteriorated. Couldn't last the class without sitting down. (>__<) Got to exercise now or I'll run out of breath in each class. And I received my last CA results breakdown. Pretty cool to see a line of As though it wasn't perfect - got a B for Clinical Practical Assessment but heck, no one got an A. (>__>). Oh and I'm assigned to Sarawak for my Dental Community Health program during the 1st week of May so Sarawak here I come! (^o^)/
