My 1st month.

I have had my braces for 1 month and 1 day. When I first got them on, I had 3 rubber spacers and 5 metal ones because they couldn't fit rubber ones everywhere. The next week, I went in and got one band put in and then the rest of the spacers replaced with rubber ones. The reason was that the metal ones didn't create a big enough space for the bands to fit but did create a big enough space for the rubber ones. I had those in for 2 weeks (I got sick and had to reschedule my appointment). Since it was 3 weeks after my braces first got put on, they went ahead and replaced my wire. :) I also decided to go with hot pink ligatures. My teeth have been a bit sensitive but I'm getting used to it. They also move the tiniest bit - it's a little freaky but that's what's supposed to happen. My canker sores have healed but I do have 2 new ones. I think it's actually one though. I was grabbing my laptop last week and (I have no idea how this happened) I smashed my lip into my braces and cut my lip. It was horrible and it was bleeding but there was no damage to the bracket. So I have that sore and then I have a tiny canker sore right next to it, but they feel the same.

My next appointment is at the end of February. I'm very excited for that. I'll be getting green, I think.

Well, I'm sorry this is short, but nothing much has been going on.
