Day one of braces. 
Still feeling weird having those brackets stucked on my teeth. Oh well...to the beauty...

Anyway, I did my braces at iDENTAL at Capital Tower. Procedures went well. I chose 2nd generation ceramic clear tooth braces. I had two premolars extracted from upper row to allow space for straightening. 4 LA jabs were disgusting but it served me well hours after that. 

So, firstly, Doctor put something like a glue on my teeth for the brackets to stick on. Then, she used some kind of light to harden the glue and finally put in wire and screwed in the opening of the brackets. At this moment, I could feel the pressure of tightening. Procedures seems easy hur. It took about an hour for everything to get done.


So here are the tools that I need each time I brush my teeth. I have to brush after every meal. Great! These tools will be my best friends for the next 1.5 years. :)


And here's a little souvenirs. Haha. My two little cute premolars were quite stubborn to come out. I had another lady holding my head while the dentist tried pulling out my teeth. 

Anyway, I thank God for successful procedures done.
