These teeth? They be hurtin'.
Chickie got her braces on yesterday (just the upper jaw this time). She wants me to keep a pictorial record, month to month, so that she can show Grammy and Papa how it's going. She herself, wanted me to post it on the blog. For whatever reasons, it's important to her, which makes it important to me.
She's a hurtin' puppy. I've been alternating Tylenol and Ibuprofen.
She's learning about the importance of wax. Ah, I remember those days well. The technology has advanced so much since I had them. It's amazing.
The color of the month? Green. In the extended entry is a before and after picture.
The journey has started.
Before
Month 1, as presented by Chickie.

Swishing warm salt water in the mouth helps. Really.

I feel for chickie, I was kinda lucky my brace I could take off, which I did cos it hurt, glad the dentist decided not to put the "fixed" kind on..
Just don't eat too much spicy stuff that has strong colors chickie and you'll be fine as the "color" has been known to leech into the glue they use to stick it on...
