Im offically scared shitless. This past month almost, Ive been going to the orthodontist and getting consulted for getting braces. I had gotten my Xrays about 2 weeks ago, and then today I had another appointment to go over the Xrays with my doc. Things went well, and we offically decided on me getting the accelerated version of braces, where its done surgically and only take, at max, 6 months so I can have them off for senior pictures. (I dont think it's going to take 6 months, I think my top teeth are only going to be about 2 months since the two front teeth need to be fixed only.) Anyway, at the end of my appointment today, we set the appointment for me having my Pre-op, where they give me all my medications and go over the surgery fully, and also for the actual surgery date, where I get the surgery (duh). Im actually kinda scared. Ive never gotten any type of surgery, ever. What they are going to do is basically trick my teeth into thinking they are broken by loosening the tissue in my gums, so all the Calcium will be drained out of the teeth by my own body, and then that's when they shift my teeth. Once things are in place, the Calcium will be brought back into my teeth, naturally as it was taken out. Through the surgery and everything, Im gunna need a day of "rest" (even though Ill still probably go to work) and I might have brusing around my mouth (hahaha... no dirty minds there, please... Especially you Arika, and you cant make fun of me either! Lol) and some swelling too. It shouldnt be that bad though, he was just saying since I hvae really soft skin, that it might be delicate enough to actually bruise it, y'know? I guess in a way Im excited. But can you even picture me with braces? Lol. My sister started calling me brace-face yesterday, and I dont even have them on.... So ya, Im having my pre-op the day after I get back from Disneyland, so the 18th. Then my surgery on the 25th, a Thrus.. Even though it will be the first week of school, I might miss that Friday if Im not up the par and if my mouth still hurts really bad. I have a feeling Ill probably just suck it up, and go to school... I dont want to screw up and miss a shitload of stuff in the first week y'know? But that was the only time that we could get an appointment, because my mom is going to be busy with school the following week. Speaking of school, I cant believe summer is already almost over :sigh: (Lol I am sitll on page 31 in that book I have to read. I SERIOUSLY better get on it) BUt the good news about going back to school is that I get to see my Nuc, right? ;) Cuz I miss my girl :)
