Braces | Week #6 Update




I keep seeing things changing in my mouth. I have huge gaps between my 4 front teeth. Really, my teeth used to be very thigh. So tight I was even worried that the doctor may wanted to pull me a tooth to create some more room. I don't know where all this space came from!
My broken bracket is still broken. Doesn't bother me at all.

Lately I feel like brushing my teeth in public bathrooms is my new hobby. For me this is the most annoying part of having braces. And it's disgusting. But I am always so self-conscious about it. I even bought a small mirror to carry with me all the time, so I can check if I really have something there of it's just my imagination. 

I have a brushing/cleaning routine that I used to do in the morning and at nigh, but lately I have been skipping the mornings, just because the whole process takes around 15 min, and for me that's way too much time to waste in the morning. This includes thoroughly brushing , flossing, using the intra-dental brush, mouth wash and applying some gum gel.
Also, I have been waking up with really chapped lips. Actually, my whole mouth feels so dry in the morning...

Next week, I have an appointment with my orthodontist and with my hygienist.I will finally get my bracket fixed. What color rubber bands should I put? I am thinking dark blue or burgundy if they have! :)

  4. Lembro-me de ter lido uma vez numa revista um artigo sobre aparelhos dos dentes, em que uma utilizadora contava que, com tanta higiene - lavar, passar fio dental, passar um líquido, lavar novamente - , ela não tinha nenhuma cárie!

  5. Mesmo depois de tirar o aparelho, costumava lavar os dentes na faculdade. Só que quando vim para o famoso instituto, deixei-me disso. Os olhares reprovadores e enojados eram sempre imensos :(
    Já usei essas 2 cores e acabei por não gostar muito da azul, porque ficava um pouco pesada e tinha a sensação de que pareciam dentes sujos ou podres x) parvoíces, bem sei. Mas o vermelho escuro era sempre uma opção recorrente :)
