Lame

Well braces are now on! The flipper must wait though so below is a funny photo for more laughs. It's okay I am laughing too. It makes everything a bit better if I can laugh.

I feel 6 years old again

Oh so attractive! Yes this sucks. I had a pretty freaky root on my tooth I guess. The oral surgeon took my front tooth and ground off the root so I can use it as a flipper until I get an implant once things are healed and straightened. I also am very lucky to be married to the man I am married too! He has been so loving and supportive of me in this situation. Thank you Joseph!! I love you! Here I am after tooth was pulled. :( You can laugh it looks pretty silly...

Last picture with my real front tooth

Waiting to pull it now. :(

The dreaded has been moved up

Tomorrow is going to be a sad day for me. The surgery almost seems useless now that I am loosing one of my front teeth. I thought this would help them not lose them. It is too late now. So tomorrow at 11:30 I will look like a toothless hick. Yay me. :(

Bad day, bad news...

So I met with my oral surgeon today. It wasn't the kind of visit I wanted. It ended with me in tears after I was given the news that I was going to lose my front tooth. Not want I wanted to hear. Not only that but the right side of my jaw stretched out more then the left. Great. I am not sure how to say how I feel about all this. I am sick to my stomach! Worried, scared, a little numb. I thought this surgery was going to save my teeth not lose them. But here I sit writing this sad post. "So what do we do now"? I asked my oral surgeon. His response gave me a little comfort. He apologized and offered to give me an implant for free. This won't be easy for me. I am heartbroken that this happened to me. I just want strong healthy beautiful teeth and I guess it's not meant to be. I had the wonderful support and comfort of my husband who was waiting for me outside. On a brighter note my darling daughter is turning 1 tomorrow! Can't believe it's already been a year!
