When I Just Got Braces

OH MY GOD!!!!! YOU HAD EXPANDERS TOO!!!! I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!! Dude, worst four years of my life. Especially because I had to tighten it myself.

I had an expander on top. Not fun

I had bridges and caps. ....... it sucksed when your just sitting there and one decides to start popping out, and you have to pull them off your self

Just to be clear...I never had expanders. My little brother has them.

Oh ok I'm not getting that but I'll need a phoqueing helmet thing at home. Thank god i don't need to wear it in public

THEY ARE HORRID IS WHAT THEY ARE
I GET MINE OUT ON THURSDAY AND I FEEL SO BLOODY HAPPY I COULD SCREAM

Expanders or braces?

Dear god you all are scaring me

Expanders, @tychu

I thought you had braces? I thought expanders came before braces so they could force the jaw to size and then braces came in afterwards to mess with the teeth.
TIL...

I do have braces.
They put on the brackets while the expander was working, then put a tiny wire in. I only have 4 front brackets. They take out the expander on Thursday *hallelujah* and I'll get my entire top brackets on.. idk when. Maybe Thursday.

Oh yeah. I forgot they could put on a few brackets at a time.
