Addicted to the Mirror

Once you get braces, you always stare at your teeth in the mirror. It's like you're addicted to the mirror. Not to being vain, but just curious to see if your teeth moved at all. I haven't seen any drastic movements since the last time I looked. Maybe it's because I look every single second of my free time. My brackets are a lot better now, by the way. Eating is still a little bit of painful because more food get trapped in the insides of my mouth. Other than that, the scraping stopped and now my gums are no longer inflamed. Life has returned back to normal, somewhat.

Another piece of good news is that the nurse was right. My o-rings are did not stain and are not yellow despite the fact that I drank a cup of coffee today. There was no staining whatever. It's interesting. I will surely remember to get the same color o-rings next time. It's called Bone.
