{ Hope you guys like my new template! I know it's very pink. :) Took me a while to get it working hence no posting for almost a month! Well, it's not just that really, just that I have been busy with life and updating blog was always something at the back of my head- just that there isn't enough time in a day to do all the things you want to do.
Anyway, today was meant to be the day when I switch to my 5th set of trays. Yes, time flies. BUT I am having a really bad cold at the moment and I didn't want to go out to pass my germs onto the whole world, so being a saint, I decided to forgo my appointment with the dentist and save a few people from getting a cold. So, going to wear these babies for one extra week, which I am quite happy to be honest. Why? BECAUSE I do feel like I haven't been wearing them long enough for the past 2 weeks and I don't want my teeth to suffer from trauma if they're not ready for the new set (and I don't want my dentist to notice my naughty behavior and get told off!) Haha, feels like I am back at school or something. :P
Will see what the dentist says next week!  } |

Went to see my dentist today to receive my 5th, 6th and 7th trays. He showed me how my teeth have moved so far, from the beginning to the 4th set of trays. They did move a fair bit on the screen, but still too little for me to notice any differences in the mirror. The funny thing was the dentist couldn't take off my trays, and asked me to take off the trays myself and I did it within 1 second! Felt really proud and experienced!LOL :D
Today the dentist shaved further two of my bottom teeth- and this time, I have my camera with me!!! Hooray, Hooray, so here is the video clip of 2 of my bottom teeth being shaved :
So, officially I'm on the 5th trays! By the way, don't you think the trays feel tighter when the dentist puts them in?
Oh, and the dentist told me that this is the stage where 'resistance' might happen. (When he said that to me, I was like, yeah, I am beginning to resist putting the trays back after dinner lately! Of course I didn't say that to him, I just thought that to myself...) Anyway, he told me that if I notice a gap between the teeth and the tray, that's a sign of the resistance and that's the time to call him! So guys, always, always call your dentist if there is anything that you think might be abnormal, after all, you've paid all the money and you don't want your teeth to go the wrong way! :P
I shall be getting the images and the Clincheck posted to me this week - so watch this space! I can't wait to look at my Clincheck everyday to remind myself WHY I've put myself through this treatment. Although it's relatively painless, it's such a hassle and I have people looking at me when I take out my trays in restaurants. (Maybe because I should have gone to the ladies and done it discreetly....) }
