Fay/Re: Hi June Buddies!!

[Guest guest]

A good morning to you too!

I am banded, and it really isn't so bad once you get used to it. The

worst part of it is that my teeth are a bit tender from the pulling

of the bands. Very similar to my first few ortho adjustments. Its

okay though because I am not chewing anyway.

Soon enough we will be rid of any swelling and most of the numbness

(if not all). Then we we will all be back to our radiant, glimmering

selves...Plus a few improvements

Its so weird though. I have very large teeth and have always shown

lots when I smiled. After my lefort, my lip comes half way down my

upper teeth....Very strange. Anyway, I am hoping to post some before

and afters soon. My stepmother is sending me a CD of pics she took

during the week of my surgery. I'll let you know when I do it. Any

pics of you???

Take care, Caboose, and happy healing!
