TEN. Can I hear a BOO YAH!

Invisalign Tray 10. 

YES!

Then I realize how many more I have to go.

BOO.

That's all for now.

Except for this.

DAy... too many

Tray 4 coming up and the pain of the trays is getting less now. I didn't even notice the last one.

I'm even prouder that I'm now Houdini when it comes to getting these retainers off. Look ma! No hands! And by no hands, I mean no hooks. No invisalign hooks! Arg... wanna see my hook?

Still waiting for my teeth to change. My routine goes a little like this:

Wake up
Check mirror
Go back to bed
Wake up
Check mirror

Maybe I need to get rid of my mirror for now.

Unamed montreal orthodontist - you better be right! 

Invisalign Montreal: Day Five

Haagen Daas, how I love thee. Things are finally getting easier and the aligners don't bother me as much anymore. I still feel like a gimp trying to take my aligners in and out, but it's getting easier too. Too bad I accidentally bit my cheek so now I'm a little chip munky.

*Counts down.. * I have how many trays to go?

I can't take this. Must find ice cream. Need... sustenance...

Someone's kicked my mouth

If Claude Leumieux punched me in the mouth, I think this is what it'd feel like. My teeth are killing me and those pesky elastics are.. gah! The buttons, the pain, need to find me more tylenol 3s. I wonder if L can help me get some.. hum. :)

I'm also starving! It hurts to bite, chew and do anythings so I'm stuck with soft foods. These little aligners are being a pain too and make me concious when eating. My tongue is also killing me because it keeps rubbing that bottom retainer and is making it raw. I CANT STAND IT. I HATE MY MONTREAL ORTHODONTIST. 

I still have way too many sets of aligners to go through as well. Guess I'm going to be eating ice cream lots now.. *hurmph*

Getting braces

After more than 20 years of having "fine teeth", my dentist said the words I never wanted to hear, "I think your bite is getting worse and you might want to look into braces."

It stunned me. I thought I was doing ok! But I've been going to this dentist for a long time.. so if he says I should look into something, I darn well listen.

Zut alors!  as my mom said. Of course, talking to her on the phone didn't help either... her crazy french.. the only thing she could say was to repeat "Un orthodontiste? C'est dommage! Orthodontie invisible!"

Over and over again. I think she just liked to rub it in and speak bad French even though her french is just fine. Will post updates later when I figure out what I'm going to do about all these appointments I'm supposedly having with my orthodontiste!

Merde.
