I'm back!

Hey guys

I am back! Sorry for being so non existent but I am back! My teeth are fine. I am back at the orthodontist on the 24th March and then my next dentist appointment is in April, I believe the 13th. This is where they will seal the hole in my tooth and do my fisser sealant.

I might start doing more blogs such as tips and tricks and telling you what I have learnt so far from having braces. I also want to do the Braces Tag, so look out for a tag blog coming up soon for you guys. There will also be some photos coming up when I get some batteries for my camera. I have lost the working batteries which I had in it, so I am going to have to get some more ones. I have also broke the little dial on the top of my camera, so I need to get that fixed soon.

Anyway, that is all. I will make sure that I will get some tag blogs prepared for you guys, so that you do have some content from me.

Bye guys

My busy life and Dentist Appt

Hi guys,

Life got really busy. I had a party to go to and it was really fun. There was a photo booth there, which was really fun. After that, it was the last week of school, so I had lots of deadlines to meet and lots of work to do.

My dentist appointment was eventful. I have a tiny hole in my top left molar. I also have to have to have a fisher sealant, as my enamel is poor. I believe I am back there in April at the start. Anyway, I am going to leave it here. Sorry I have been non existent, but I hope you understand that I have been slightly busy. Photos are coming soon

Bye guys

Teeth, School and Holidays

Hi guys,

My teeth are straightening nicely! My front four teeth are looking so much more straighter than usual which is good news. I cannot wait until the end of March to go back to the orthodontist and get my bottom braces.

School is really busy, but the pressure is good and I am enjoying it. We had our school photos yesterday and they went really good. Maybe I will post my school photo on my blog. I did not smile with my teeth because I do not feel comfortable with showing my teeth off just as yet.

I am hopefully going on holiday in 2016 with all of my girls at school. I am not sure when yet but it is early days as half of us have no jobs and half of us are driving and need money for a car.

Anyway, I am off and out,

Bye guys.

WHERE I'VE GONE (again)

Hi guys,

I AM SO SORRY. I have been ill for two weeks. I had primary dysmenorrhea for one week and for the next week I had severe bowel problems. I have been out of everything and not been 100%. I am back and much better now and I am ready to talk to you.

Good news! My front two teeth are straightening out nicely! They don't overlap as much as they used to which is good. I am at the dentist in the first week of February and then I am at the orthodontist in the last week of March. I am hoping the dentist goes good, because I don't like my dentist at all and I have been trying super hard to keep my oral hygiene in check.

Sixth form is getting stressful. Got lots of work to complete in a short space of time. Got some assessors coming into school to mark work in the second week of February. So if I don't blog for a while again, its because I am trying to get Distinctions and focus on the work in hand.

Anyway, I am going to go now, so hope you have a good weekend!

Bye guys

Day 84:(and a bit) Where I've been

Hi guys,

Where have I been?! Feel like I've been so non existent recently but school has been full on and I have been spending every evening working full stop. Next week I am not going to be able to post until Friday time. This is because I am helping out at a dance show on Monday and Tuesday and then I will be working on school work from Wednesday and Thursday.

Anyway, enough of the rambling. Teeth are doing fine. They are still moving slowly and they are definitely improving. I am not seeing much of a difference by I cannot wait until I can get them off and see the difference that has been made.

Anyway, I am going to go now so I shall be blogging next Friday.

Bye guys

Day 77(and a bit): New term, New Year and New Stuff

Hi guys,

Sorry I didn't blog yesterday, it completely slipped my mind. I started a new term in sixth form yesterday, and my mind was all over the place. I got a new timetable and I got some new units of work to start. So all systems go this month and next month.

It is a new year, so this means that there is new things happening and new goals to achieve. I hope this will be the year I get my braces off *crosses fingers tightly* but I'm not getting my hopes up because anything could happen. I cannot believe its nearly been 100 days with them on.

I don't really have a lot to say to be honest. My teeth are moving fine, school has upped its game and I can drive this year. See you next Monday!

Bye guys

All About My Damon Braces

Hi guys,

Happy New Year! Now I know its a Friday and I post on a Monday but I thought I would explain my Damon Braces to you as I don't have the standard regular braces.

On the right you can see traditional braces with the elastics and hooks and here on the left you can see Damon braces, which are the ones I have.

Damon braces are designed with gates which are on the front of the brackets. This allows the wires to glide easier and therefore move your teeth much faster and more efficiently. Also, people with Damon braces do not have to have teeth extracted or removed, as the rate in which the teeth move is much faster than the traditional braces. Another positive about these braces is that they are self ligating which means that they don't require 'o' ties or elastics as they are commonly known. Other advantages include:

  • A more natural finish compared to the traditional braces
  • You don't have to visit the orthodontist regularly
  • The time you have them on is shorter than the traditional braces
Sorry for rambling, but I thought I would just clear this up for everyone who thought that my brackets looked a bit peculiar.

Bye guys,
