Day 50

Yesterday I saw my oral surgeon. He didn't really have much to say other than everything still looks amazing! And he told me to come back in 2 months and then after that he won't see me again until after I get my braces off! He also cleared me to begin eating whatever I would like within reason obviously no raw carrots or corn on the cob, but I can handle that. I told him that I still feel unsure about chewing sometimes because I can't feel my gums or the roof of my mouth, but he said that was completely normal. 


Oh and also I noticed that my mouth feels so much smaller than I remember it being! I feel like my braces are taking up so much space in my mouth and it is extremely aggravating. I really hope I don't have to keep my braces on until December because I might go insane! I keep biting my tongue but I think that may have something to do with not being able to really feel any other parts of my mouth. 


Everyday just seems so much easier, especially eating! I am so much more comfortable going out. Although everyone at work seems to still be getting used to my new look. I am still working on getting my smile just right, it still bugs me because I feel like my lips look crooked! and I am hoping that it is still because it still slightly numb and maybe still have some swelling.


Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures.... I took them on my laptop and it doesn't take the best pictures!
