Metal Mouth

Yesterday, I got braces. I never thought that they woud hurt as much as they do. The worst part is that I only have about three food potions to eat. I have soup, smoothies, and ice cream. These foods are all soft enough for me to eat. I got lucky though and I will only have to have them for 10 months. I hope that these next 10 months go by fast!

Most of the girls at the barn have already had braces or have them right now. I guess there is one bonus.... I get to join the brace face club at the barn!

For anyone with a background in itil certification, going for 642-426 is not hard if he has mcp or ccda to his credit. This also exempts him from cwna. All he has to do now is mcsd.

hi Madison
don't worry about the braces your soo lucky to only have them for 10 months and it will be worth it in the end. i've had mine on for three years now! you get use to them after awhile and you'll soon be eating everything you use to. i had an operation on my jaw aswell because i had an overbite. i was on liquids for six weeks! the sites looking really well so is Moon! hope your having fun

Just got my braces off for the 3rd time. This time as a 30 year old! One thing I didn't have to deal with the first two times (as I didn't have any horses) was how much it really hurts if you get smacked in the face with the horses head with braces. Yeowch!

Oh and when it's all over, wear your retainer. Then you don't have to pay for braces yourself when you turn 30 and get married. :>

I'm sorry it hurts--but I agree with the previous poster, it's much better to be school-aged with braces than in your 30's!

Pictures girl---I always wanted braces. I was the only one of my friends that didn't have them. I am sure you look adorable.

Yup, welcome to the world of metal mouths!

I just got mine Tesuday (October 30th)

Oh, and don't worry, you'll be able to eat in a week or two! =P I'm eating pretty much everything I used to, except apples, and I have to shove everything to the back right corner of my mouth, since that's the only place where it doesn't hurt to put any type of pressure on my teeth, HAHA.

Haley,
