My braces journey

 I started having braces on May 2018

Search through online and found out at this place charge $3.5k and first payment will be $1.2k so subsequently every 6 weeks have to pay $120 

Times flies and yesterday I have just took out braces~



I screenshot all my photos from
IGstories 

The first day of my braces journey, I went for consultation and they check my teeth with X-ray. It’s to check which tooth to take out and whether to take out wisdom teeth. For my situation, the doctor said that there’s no need for me to take out wisdom as it doesn’t affect~ but still have to extract 2 tooth, so there will be more space available for the other tooth

So my appointment is extraction, the Dentist inject anaesthesia to my gums make sure I don’t feel anything. After that he used a piler  to take out both of tooth and that feeling was extremely weird af....... it doesn’t felt pain but it just felt he just pull out something and it’s look violent 😂 It’s normal for everyone who did extraction and bleeds a lot on the way home. After putting cotton pads but I still drool and bleed a lot but I can’t feel in my mouth. I tried to took the train but I drool too much with the blood and I exit the train station to take Grab instead 

After a month, I went back to get my braces done. If I am not wrong, I did scaling, polishing and filling and I really dislike because some parts of my gums are very sensitive~

So I went back every 6 weeks to tighten my braces










Yeap this the first photo

The appointment which was yesterday, I did scaling, polishing, X-ray, moulding and taking out the braces. For moulding I have to do it 4 times and I felt Super uncomfortable 😭 but it’s for the retainer!
Will be collecting next week!


So this how I look like now~ I feel that I have become uglier and my teeth all looks bigger than before 😂 trying to get used to it~


No matter what, I still have to thank Dr Ong for this wonderful journey! 👏👏
