Hi Palate Expander Friends,
I'm sorry it has taken me awhile to post again...I am now on a new dental adventure. My teeth are coming in kind of funny. One of my top two teeth is really far in and my bottom teeth are sticking out. I look kind of funny I think. Now my dentist does not want to put braces on me now so we have a new plan...I have to take a popsicle stick and push the top tooth out with it. I have to hold it in place for 30 minutes and then the bottom tooth that is really sticking out, I have to push it in with my thumb. It is painful. While I am doing it, I get a really bad pain in my jaw on my right side and in my ear. Its kind of weird.
I am so proud of all o fyou when I read all of your comments and that you are going through this palate expander adventure....my dentist told me that if I hadn't done it, my teeth now would be a lot worse so I am grateful that I had it. Do you know sometimes I kind of miss it because I miss writing on here every day.
"You can do this!" Its uncomfortable and not really fun because you talk funny and it hurts to eat, and oh, your poor Moms having to turn it. My Mom still reminds me about that how she felt so bad about turning the key.
So while you are on your palate expander adventure, I am working on my popsicle adventure. Sounds funny.
You are all amazing.
Your Friend
Colin
