In the beginning...May 2005



So this is my mouth. A huuge overbite, no back bite, and missing molars. I lost a lower molar(31) several years ago and didn't have the means to replace it. This caused my wisdom tooth to slip forward and try and fill the space. Invisalign predict I need a whopping 85 uppers and 26 lowers.

In May 2005, I had two upper molars(2,15) removed the same time I got my first aligners. Seeping blood from open wounds and aligners stuck steadfast, my breath was kicking like Jackie Chan. I had a lot to learn about these devils. I was also awarded 8 scratchy attachments on #4, 5, 12, 13, 21, 22, 27, 28. I think I may have been a bit grouchy that day...
