Before braces at my initial exam appointment: (If you notice, my overbite was NOT apparent at this first inital appointment - my teeth were so severely crowded that it didn't look like I had an overbite - weird, huh?)


Steph's blogging her journey through braces and upper and lower jaw surgery and a genioplasty. All her adventures with the insurance companies, popsicle sticks, teaching middle school band and orchestra with braces, playing the clarinet, and eating through a syringe :)
Braces went on January 22, 2008.
Surgery was July 1st, 2009.
Braces came off April 28th, 2010.
