well.. they're off! i don't look like myself... this is weeeeird.... my teeth aren't as yellow is i excepted them to be though, which is good ;)

ahhh but i want 'em back on!! i don't even recognize myself!! and my teeth look like they shrunk :confusion

i guess i jsut have to get used to it though.. in the mean time, i'm never ever showing anyone my teeth :P

Shirl
07-20-2004, 08:22 PM
Yay Sal! :D Did it hurt getting them off?

salomeyasobko
07-20-2004, 08:25 PM
a little bit in the beginning.. because they pulled off the bracket things. but after that it didn't hurt!

OH but they had to make molds of my teeth, and they put this thing in my mouth that was filled will thick goop.. eww.. and it started running down my mouth towards my throat and i started to "gag"/throw up.. and my eyes were watering heavily.. they had to hold me down.. x.x

other than that it was great ;) other than looking at myself in the mirror..

Shirl
07-20-2004, 08:26 PM
Yeah, that goopy stuff is icky :P I had to have a mold before I got mine on. :D

salomeyasobko
07-20-2004, 08:27 PM
i didn't! which is weird, bc i'd assume they'd want to know what my teeth were like before i had 'em on, too :confused:

I was so sick of braces, every time pop-corn got stuck in them I regretted ever having my teeth fixed. But it is worth it in the long run. congrats :)

Congrats on getting the braces off!!! I had mine on for 3 1/2 years, because I didn't wear my rubber bands.. :rolleyes: Was all worth the pain eventually though :D The goopy feeling on your teeth is weird for a while, haha, but it gets better!

Ah, its not so bad. Just some tips to help you cope:

-dont chew for about a week:D your teeth are going to be sore.
-keep alot of soup handy.
-swishing with salty water helps relieve some of the soreness. :)

I just got my braces 3 months ago, I've got to wear them for 3 years. :P

When I was little my dentist saw that my teeth were bunching up... so he pulled four of my baby teeth out so I wouldn't have to have braces... that is why I love my Dentist... lol

Stuff like this.... I NEVER wrote this. A. because I never needed braces and (B.) I hate pop-corn. SO, someone added that in, I dont care who.

sophie isn't a moderator, she physically doesn't have the capability of pulling off something like that. but, i'm sure the moderators can check out the IP addresses of those posts and see if what you say is true!

i'm really curious... HMMMMMM... :rolleyes:

4sight: the post sophie "supposedly" created in your name wasn't even mean or bad or anything... so... yeah. she's obviously a kind hacker ;)

well, that's interesting... that post has the same IP address as all your other posts, which means that you or someone else using your computer posted it. also, it has not been edited, as you can see from the lack of the "last edited..." message at the bottom of the post (which I'm sure you're familiar with, because you've had your posts edited so much due to double posting).

oh no dan... you see... I snuck into his house while he was not looking, used his computer, then traveled back to Texas because I am that skilled :P

Edit: yes it was smart of you, Dan, to lock down that thread :P it was just some much fun messing with him

I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, because you do, in fact, have a static IP which is evidenced by the fact that you have broadband and a sampling of your posts from since you joined until now all have the same IP address.

and I'm sure any 25 year old knows what "static" means, so I'm sure it's not that you just don't know what it is...
