The time has come...Ben is old enough for braces! He was unimpressed with the first orthodontist we visited (as was I) but thrilled with the second one because of the awesome 3D images we got to see of his face and skull. That's not why we chose the second orthodontist, but it helped to have been excited to see the guy and talk to him!
The big day! Before...
...and after! Just tops for now.
I had forgotten how painful the first few days were after getting braces but Ben survived on soup and milkshakes until he could chew again. What a trooper! Can't wait to see the beautiful smile when the braces come off and fingers crossed he won't need round 2 after the rest of his permanent teeth grow in.
