Jeng Jeng Jeng~ Buh bye braces! Buh bye iron teeth! Buh bye ugly teeth!!!
大浪~ 再见钢牙妹~
I have wanted to blog about this since the day I took it off. Due to my laziness, it is postponed until today. Since I am having my trimester break holiday now I am going to blog about my orthodontic treatment process.
自从拔牙套拆下来的那一天,我就想要写这篇文章。就因为懒惰,拖到了今天。
I believe most of the people out there have the idea of making their teeth to look better but they haven’t made up their mind due to many obstacles. Yes, I truly understand that.
相信很多牙齿不整齐的人都有过想要矫正牙齿的想法。但往往因为很多阻扰,所以迟迟未能实现。以过来人的身份,我很明白那种感受。
Many people told me I didn’t have to do orthodontic when I first mentioned that I wanted to do so. They said my teeth were fine that way and no point wasting money for nonsense. I didn’t give a fuck about what they said because this is my money, my teeth. Why should I care what other people said right?
当我起初把我想矫正牙齿的想法说出来时,得到了很多反对的声音。有些人说我的牙齿歪的程度并不严重,不必花钱找罪受。牙齿是我的,钱也是我的,我并不理会别人说了什么。
I was 18 years old when I first went for it.
Time is money, if you think that you need to do it, and you can afford it, do not hesitate! JUST DO IT! GO FOR IT! The earlier the better. :)
去年我去绑牙的时候十八岁。
时间就是金钱,如果你觉得自己有能力,又有需要的话。别犹豫了!去做吧!越快越好!:)
I still think that neat and straight teeth really make you look much better and you can smile more confidently. Well, if you still insist that your rabbit or tiger teeth are so nice and you wanna keep it so that people can remember you better, just keep it that way! Whatever rocks your boat, I don’t care. I need to clarify because I know some people will pop out and argue with me and claim that they are happy about their “beautiful messy rabbit/tiger teeth” so they do not need to have orthodontic.
拥有一口整齐漂亮的牙齿真的很重要,有什么东西比自信的笑容更有魅力呢?
For me, having messy teeth is intolerable.
This is how my teeth looked like last year April (2009). Damn geli can? Damn those people who told me I had nice teeth that time, luckily I didn’t listen to them.
绑牙前的牙齿

This is the first day I put on the braces. I didn’t draw any tooth because my orthodontist said that I didn’t have to. It’s all depend on your situation actually. Some people might need to draw 2, 4 or even 6 teeth! Thanks God I didn’t have too. :D
29 April 2009 – Braces on!!
牙套套上的第一天

I didn’t experience the painfulness as much as what I expected before doing it. The first week, I could only eat soft food but things went better after that. I could even eat McD Spicy Chicken Mc Deluxe that time. Geng ler? It’s not as scary as you think it is. Trust me. :D
29 May 2009 – 1 Month

Changed the “donuts” (rubber rings). Felt very regret for choosing blue color because it makes your braces look even more obvious. But never mind lah, can change color every month what? :P I will visit my orthodontist once in 1.5 month average.

8 November 2009 – 6 Months
六个月
Got my front teeth trimmed a bit. Pink donuts!! xD

10 December 2009 – 7 Months
七个月
Yeay Yeay~ My teeth became more straight already. Started to wonder, when can I take off the braces? Hehe.

15 April 2010 – 11.5 Months
十一个月半

12 May 2010 – 12.5 Months
十二个月半,牙套拆除啦!:D
Braces removed!!! Smile~~~ Wee so nice teeth can advertise Darlie Toothpaste already! xD


So happy after removing the evil iron but don’t forget you have to wear your retainer! It’s irritating but you just have to wear it because you don’t want you teeth to go back to how it was right? :P

You need to take it down before eating, you will have funny speech wearing it. Hmm.. Bear with it. One more year. :)
I know this photo looks gross as if I just take off from my teeth to take the photo. I swear I cleaned and dried it before taking photo lo. This is how the retainer looks like when IT IS CLEAN!

I spent a total RM2500 for my upper teeth only, in Malacca. It is worth, no doubt.
总共花了RM2500,制作了上排牙齿。在马六甲的一间牙医诊所。有兴趣的话,可以问我。
Basically that’s all I want to share. I hope the information helps. :)
