Hi Everyone
Well I still dont have braces on my top teeth and it looks like it will be at least another 6 weeks or so before that happens. Im currently in the middle of root canal treatment on my front tooth. I had my first session on Thursday and had another set back because my dentist said my root seems very short and wide. Apparently the top of your tooth root should be narrow and pointy. I need to get xrays to determine what my root looks like because he said its very unusal. One reason he thinks it MIGHT be like that is from surgery. He said its possible the tip of my root could have been cut off during the operation. But I guess ill find out soon enough what is really going on....
I have to wait a little while before I can get xrays as I have so much going on with work and personal life, I cant keep taking time off work for more dentist appointments. I feel like I am at a dentist appointment every week between my general dentist and ortho.
On another note though my bite seems to be improving ever so slowly. The elastics on the plates seem to be working, but its a very slow process.
One thing I have noticed which I don't remember when I had braces before is, that I will get a random tooth that will be sore for about a week then it will stop! Each time its a different tooth, but I just find it weird. Why is just one tooth sore and why for only a few days.... strange.....
