Hello guys!
Just here to fill up this space since I have some time to spare. I was looking through the old photos and I have decided to do a compilation of how my teeth looked like throughout the past 10 months. It is really amazing what braces can do to our teeth isn't it?
I'm so glad I went for my braces and I no longer have to be mocked for my crooked teeth and I am definitely more confidently when I speak to anyone. Conversing with people is a big part of my life since I am in the healthcare industry. I used to have patients to who constantly digs at my teeth and asked me why I hadn't gone for braces. My grandma on the other hand was really angry at me when I decided to get my braces because I had to extract 4 teeth and go through the process of "remodelling" how my teeth looks. She didn't like the idea of changing what is naturally given to me. Of course she didn't understand what other people's comments do to me but I am glad I have supportive people around me whom despite all odds gave me their encouragements and showed their care and concern. Not even rushing me when I tend to chew slower than usual.
I really cannot wait to see how my teeth finally looks like after the braces are removed.
The process is painful but it is definitely very rewarding after 2 years. If you really think you wanna go for it, go ahead! Don't be afraid what people will think of you. We aren't born to be or look perfect. But we can do something about what we are unhappy about. Even though it is very common these days to get braces on whether it is to look cool or because one really needs it and you will come across people who are going to talk about you and give comments that are probably going to upset you. If your teeth is as bad as mine and you have difficulty eating properly, just go ahead. How they think of you doesn't matter because ultimately you are going to gain more confidence and eat in comfort.
