Monthly Dental Visits for Braces: Six Months
Hi all,
Actually I'm confused by the amount of time that has passed. Since June is over, it's the
completion of my sixth month having dem braces. Hope this clears things up. This is the way I count my treatment progress. I had it placed in
January.
It took me awhile to get used to
the bite turbos. It's much better now. However, of course I can feel it. The dentist mentioned that my
lower teeth still ain't straight and she might file it a little.
You can see that the bite turbos actually prevent my upper row of teeth from hitting the brackets on the lower
row.
On the last three teeth on each
side (bottom row), the dentist placed the power thread through them. So this time
round, there's more pressure on the lower row of teeth.
On the right side, there has
always been this annoying gap that is so wide that my food always loves to play
hide and go seek in that bloody gap. Flossing was a chore. It also prevents my teeth from becoming a complete arch/horse shoe.
The circled area is where she actually filed my
teeth.
In the picture, it is not very clear
but in person, I could totally see where she filed it. Reason because there are
small gaps visible.
I got a feeling that the bite turbos actually made my bottom row of teeth more crooked than it was before ~
Colour: I asked for teal and pink
but she gave me blue and pink. Oh well.. Curry will do the trick but then, my
pink would turn orange too.
Xoxo,
CAZP <3

Monthly Dental Visits for Braces: Five Months
Hi everyone,
Just yesterday I had my braces tightened, adjusted what not again. I chose dark blue this time as I'm going to have indian food on the coming monday. The colour wasn't the blue I wanted but oh well... Sometimes you just can't get what you want.
This
time my dentist placed the power thread on 3 of my teeth. That hurt, I
literally teared. Now, there is a gap between my two front teeth. I hate these
gaps but in the future, the gaps will disappear. I read that it is common that
your teeth will have gaps that never were there in the future. In addition to
the power thread, the dentist placed bite turbos behind my two front teeth.
This is to prevent my upper teeth from hitting the bottom teeth (due to my deep bite).
"Bite Turbos are small composite platforms placed on
the inside of the upper front teeth, or on the biting surfaces
of the back molars, to prevent full closure of the teeth. When upper and lower
braces are placed at the same time, in many instances, the top teeth bite down
and contact the lower braces."
You can google how bite turbos look like. It's rather uncomfortable and annoying. But i'm sure i'll get used to it. It's similar to the bite pillows on my molars. (they are the blue stuff on my molar in the picture).
That's all for now.
Cheers,
CAZP

Just another day out
Hey everyone,
Met up with my friends today. We decided to bowl @ toa payoh SAFRA and play pool after that. I only bowled like twice in my life. HAHA and i'm definitely surprised at my score. I'm Alex btw.
Learnt how to play pool and got the gist of it at least. I'm still not very good at it. I missed a couple of times. Okay, quite a number of times. But I did manage to shoot some balls. Hell, I don't know what terms they use.
We then decided to head to bugis to have dinner. We had dinner at Wingzone. It was an interesting experience but I don't think i'll go back there ever. I don't think its especially amazing. Sorry, honesty at it's best.
Thanks to Rahul. Who bought me the cute emoji keychain and
it completely reminds me of him. And the lovely cake. I didn't expect to have u
guys sing a birthday song for me in the middle of a fast food restaurant. But i
really appreciate it.
:>
XOXO
