Braces Progress

Henlo, I would like share my progress and know your thoughts sa braces ko. For context religiously ako nagpapa-adjust. Walang palya.

Nagpa-brace ako July 2024. First photo shows my teeth a day before I got my braces put on. Sungki talaga lower teeth ko and yung canine teeth ko naman are prominent.

Second photo naman is a day after. Funny thing, natanggalan ako 7 brackets in less than a week and I had to go back to my dentist ASAP that time to get it fixed. My dentist was shocked because it was her first time experience a px na sabay-sabay natanggal ang bracket.

The rest of the photos are taken yesterday. My dentist recommended to wear elastics for two months straight. Hindi ako masyado consistent kasi medyo hassle tanggalin and ikabit pag kakain pero I make sure to wear them before I sleep pero I still haven't gotten used to it.

I also got my lower third molar teeth last Tuesday lang and now recovering. To give you context, my left third molar erupted normally without impaction pero yung right is mesioangular type. As far as recovery is concern, I'm doing good but paranoid of the dry socket thing since mas madalas yung pain sa right socket ko.

And ang tagal na namin problem yung lower right central incisor ko since rotated nga siya. My doctor tried several techniques to get it fixed pero I don't see any progress yet. She told me I'll get my braces removed na in more or less 3 months after my wisdom teeth extraction since we're expecting na magc-create na ng space lower teeth ko para mag align na yung central incisor.

I can't wait to get my braces removed. 🙂‍↔️
