Brace Face

Since I have been in the dental field for 14 years, one of my obsessions is teeth. Because of that, I have always wished my teeth we straighter than they are. I have always talked about doing braces, but it just has never happened. In September, Jeremy called and set up a consultation for me with an orthodontist here in Springville. And we were able to work it out so I could do it. So on Nov. 5, I got braces!!! I get to feel 14 again for the next year or so. Here are some very unattractive pictures of the process.

Got to love the cheek retractors.

The finished product.

One added bonus of starting this process, is that I also have had the opportunity to start working with Dr. Warren. I am working on call, as needed for him. It will be fun to learn a new specialty and increase my knowledge of the dental field. I'm always up for a new challenge.

I'm kind of jealous. I've always dreamed of working in a orthodontist office. but I'd never get back into braces. so kudos to you and your bravery.
