saw the orthodontist today for a consult...estimated time of treatment is 18 months with braces and 6 months with retainer full time, then once a night per week for the rest of my life...so long as i want my teeth straight.
im missing two teeth; the normal mouth has 2 incisers, 1 canine, first molar, 2nd molar, then molars in the back...on each side of the mouth and on the top and bottom.
my top row is missing the 2nd molars so the 1st molar was rotated to compensate for the missing space and that messed up the lining of the molars on the top and bottom, as well as the top canine lining up in the middle of canine and 1st molar on the botttom row.
i'll have to wear rubberbands and watch what i eat, but if my teeth can get fixed...its worth it. altho, theyre not that badly messed up, its still nice to know that i can have nice teeth.
doing yard and house work today, spent a crap load of money on lawn saving chemicals in granule form, but dont know if it was worth it cause ive done this before and it turns out my lawn likes to die where theres suppose to be grass but grow where there are weeds.
i hate yard work.
