Day 1!

Post Body

I had upper teeth braces in my teens and Invisalign 5 years ago at a cheap place that didn't fix my bite, but starting over w braces at 40. Decided to do this right for once.

Supposed to take 18-24 months. Just getting started so don't know what to expect. I already popped off a bracket on my molar (crown) and one of my bite blocks! This is hard. Still figuring out how to chew. The bite blocks already fix my jaw so much. It is super crooked and with the bite blocks in it is much straighter. I don't know if my teeth are just too small to have really good teeth without veneers, but I'm hoping when I'm done I'll finally have a good bite and straight teeth. Do you think it's poss? I'm so embarrassed by my teeth.
