Second to Last Wire on Top Teeth
Phew! Second to last wire on top teeth today. It was a tough wire and a bit uncomfortable to fit, but I kept thinking of my daughter's wedding!
My orthodontist said that next time he would fix the permanent retainer on my bottom teeth. He took an impression today so it will be ready. He's also going to 'tidy up' these teeth to make a straight line across the top. Not too sure about it, but I suppose they have got to look right. He may also 'tidy up' the edges of my top teeth too.
He says that on the July appointment, he'll be able to take both braces off! That's fantastic after what will be braces for 13 months on my bottom teeth, and 12 months on my top!
I noticed for the first time today - just shows how nervous I've been- that his nurse is pregnant, and the baby's expected in early May! She's just as worried about giving birth to her first child as I will be on the day the braces come off. However, the receptionist said that it would be fine: I was worried before I had them put on but I survived, and I'll survive having them taken off, and she's right. It'll be wonderful to be free at last with straight teeth except for the two little retainer wires behind.
