Day 1

I got my braces fitted this morning! Ceramic on top, regular Damon metal on the bottom. I wanted all ceramic but because of my deep bite they said that ceramics on my bottom would wear my upper teeth down more than it already is. They wanted to prevent that from happening when I bite down.

Also to prevent me from biting into my bottom brackets, they put a bite block (blue cement) onto my lower molars to open my bite. I'm not sure if they will wear down before my next appointment in 12 weeks, so my diet will consist of shakes, soft foods, and liquids until I'm able to bite down properly, Maybe a good liquid diet to help lose weight, eh? :) You can kind of see which parts of the wire will need to straighten out, especially on my cuspids where they will need to be brought down. I'm excited to see how my teeth with progress!
