Wishes do come true, 3 weeks baby!!!

YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS de-bracing day is now set for Thursday April 10, 2008 at 10:30am, yyyyyyyiiiiiiiiiippppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Guess it doesnt hurt to ask does it.

Anyways, the appt yesterday went well as you can tell. They did some weird wire configuration on the top, like a powerchain of metal to hold it all together at the front...and added a hook since im missing the one on my eye tooth, no idea where it went or when it broke off. So i can say i am full of wire....new elastic configuration again...right side just the back 2...left side back 2 molars top and bottom, so a square...those are 24/7 then at night i wear up and down both eye teeth. Its only been 24 hrs but so much has pulled together nicely. I can finally say i have THE PERFECT bite...EVERYTHING touches, even the back molars that i was affraid would never touch....i am sooooooooooo happy i cant even believe it.

So they are comin off in 3 weeks less 1 day...they said be prepared to be there 1.5 hrs at least, since i still cant open more than 3 fingers and im very sensitive, I will probably have to take breaks...but whatever to get them off right.

I cant believe this is all finally over...i know its only been 8 months since the braces went on, then surgery, but this is my 2nd time through, this should have been the results last time, when i was 17...lol...but whatever u cant rush perfection right, hehe.

YESSSSSSSSSSS baby, so happy....cant wait, and they come off just in time for my photoshoot for my furrylegwarmerz small business i run...pics without braces, yipee.

The weirdest part is that they are comin off but i am still sooooooo numb, feels like they almost should still be on, but heck if the bites dead on, get these suckers off right.

Anyways just want to wish wired lady good luck tomorrow on her surgery and all those fellow bloggers with upcoming ones!

mmmmmmm subway

So eating has been adventurous as of lately. I would say i am no where near 100% and still have trouble eating a lot at 5 months post op...but its getting easier. I ate a sub for the first time from Subway. Now it was only a cold cut trio on very fresh bread so i was able to squish it down a lot. I had to take out the green pepers and tomatoes i ordered, cuz that was pushin it and they were too crunchy, but i managed it. My fiance said i should blog immediately as he felt it was a big hurdle i had jumped over, lol.

Does anyone know when one is expected to have full range of motion or close to it back again...am i counting my chickens too quickly at 5 months??? I mean braces come off in just over a month, wouldnt one expect it to be near perfect by them...not even close for me......its so annoying, lol.

Anyways thats my piece for the day...next up is ortho appt in 2 weeks...until then VEGAS BABY....bye by Canadian winter weather, snow, snow, snow...and hello 20-24 degrees!!! Never been and im going for 5 days, should be fun!!!!!!!!!
