The good news is, I don't have to have my jaw broken and wired up.
The bad news is, the pain and loose front teeth is caused by my bottom teeth digging into my gums. It caused an infection, so there was novocaine, and a prescription for antibiotics.
I have to get braces to correct the bite, or I'll lose teeth.
Am sad.
Ugh, Allyson! What a PITA. Not to mention the expense.
Which teeth are digging into which gums? Just curious.
Allyson, I hope you have dental insurance to cover the work.
DH brought home fat free half & half so I am at the store getting the regular stuff. And cat food-which he forgot.
I'm posting from my new phon and it's spiffy.
My insurance doesn't cover a lot, but I can finance it.
It covered the x-rays and some other things today (I got four shots, a ton of xrays, and about a half hour of scaling, plus a prescription mouth rinse) and it was $200 out-of-pocket.

ick, Allyson. sorry about the mouth woes. what exactly are they thinking the braces are going to do?
health ~ma to Grace.
They'll realign my bite, back to where it was when I first had braces, when I was twelve.
My dad says I will still be beautiful even with braces.
In his completely unbiased opinion, of course.
