So Much For Keeping Up With The Blog

Wow. So much time has passed since I last posted anything on this blog. My teeth have changed dramatically, I got married and we bought a house! I wish I'd kept up better with the teeth photos, although since the last post with photos, the teeth have probably not changed as much as they did when I first got braces.

I had the braces taken off for the wedding. The top ones came off just before Thanksgiving 2006. The top teeth were ready for the SureSmile scan and the current wire wasn't really moving the teeth any more, so I had a few months of relief with no top braces. The bottom braces came off just a few weeks before the wedding. Since the bottom braces were added so much later and still had work to do, Dr. Stewart left them on to keep working.

I got the braces back on.....4 weeks after the wedding, which was the first appointment I could get. Now we're into June, almost July and I finally was ready this week for the SureSmile scan. I'll add a separate post about that experience. I also will try to take some photos this evening to upload.
