The Orthodontist Trip

I am very excited because this is my first blog (although once I wrote one of my grandma's).
Today I went to the orthodontist to get some metal rings put in on my molars behind my braces and I also got my wire changed. When we got there, there was surprisingly no people. Good for us though, because then we didn't have to wait. Anyway, I was called in to get the metal rings put in. First they took out the wire. Then they got to the rings. They struggled a little trying to get different sizes to fit, and I had to bite down on this weird orange thing to help get it in. That was my right molar. Now for the left one. We did not get it in because it hurt. Why? There was so much gum tissue there that it felt like it was practically digging in. Ouch. Ryan, my brother, went to the orthodontist too to get his wire changed. Back to my story. I got to choose my color for my braces. I, of course, picked red and green because it is nearing Christmas. I asked Ryan what he had picked. He said, "Red and green." I said, "Me too."
When we were driving away, Mom suggested smoothies. We all agreed immediately and ordered some from McDonald's.

I think I did a good job for a first-time blogger. What about you?

  2. Great FIRST job Cavan. I have never had to deal with "wires" in my mouth so I can't fully appreciate what you went through. Glad it is over for you.
