NewsFlash

April 9th - LJ drove over to see the dentist after 3 months, for a quick check up. They cleaned her teeth and after that decided to discuss the two back teeth in back that were turning in. "Well your teeth are just great. They're all straight, except for these two in back. Let's talk about these. Let me call the Orthodontist."

Now, LJ knew about these two in back for the past two years, but never got around to seeing the Orthodontist in New York, so now she was going to take care of it.

News of what would happen if she didn't take care of it frightened her, but there was still hope. Taking care of your teeth are important and LJ always took care of her teeth, but was shocked last December when she was told she needed a root canal. The root canal was done, so now we waited for it to adjust.

"But as far as the teeth back there, you're going to need braces to help straight the up and over." The dentist said. "Yeah, I figured. Sure I'll do it. I don't want any problems with my teeth if I don't fix them." So in the end she said that I would have to have braces on for a good 18 to 24 months. She said that a lot of kids go through it and they're fine. It's the adults that have problems with it. Probably cause they don't want to look like dorks?

"Well I don't mind." I said. " I think it'll only make me cuter. " ;)
