Brace Yourself!

Today, I went to the orthodontist to have more stuff put in my mouth.  He bonded my “upper 3 to 3” which means he put brackets on my upper teeth from canine to canine.  He then took a “zip strip” and wound it in a figure eight pattern around/between the brackets on my front teeth.  This string will pull my teeth back together and fill in the gap that this past month of palatal expansion has created.  It’s pretty amazing stuff.

When I got home, Angela wanted to see what they did, meaning, of course, Andrew wanted to see to, so I picked him up so that he could get a good look.  After a little bit of looking and pointing, Andrew proclaims, “That wooks weawwy odd!”  Floored us.
