Seeing my Braces for the first time __ Reaction and First Impressions.

I'm on my way to the dentist. I'm getting braces today. I only realised yesterday that I had to get them done today so I'm a bit nervous. Say goodbye to my teeth. Bye! Bye teeth! I've just got home. I have not seen my braces yet. They didn't give me a mirror at the dentist. I didn't look on my phone. I went straight to the shop, bought myself some soft food and came straight home. I have a mirror here. We're gonna film my first impression. Oh my god, I've got a whistle. Oh, oh my god. I'm a braised face. Oh my god. The whole journey back, I walked. I can't freaking close my teeth. Like, I've got a lisp. I've got a whistle when I talk. Oh my god. Can you hear that whistle? My mouth feels, my mouth feels so weird. It is rubbing all against my inside of my lips. They've given me a kit and some wax stuff that you can put on the pokey bit so they stop rubbing. But oh my god, this is so weird. If you see at the back, my teeth can't close. So with my normal bite, they would close. So it feels really uncomfortable because my natural position for my mouth to be in is for all my teeth to be closed, touching and now they can't. I don't know how I'm gonna eat. My front teeth are currently, oh my god, the whistle is unreal. My front teeth have to rest on these bottom braces. It feels painful. So this is how my mouth is resting on the inside when my mouth is closed. Feels really weird because I can't actually close my teeth. The bottom brace is stopping my front teeth from going all the way down. I feel like it's wrong. I feel like I'm gonna have to go back and like change it because it just does not feel right at all. I'm gonna see how it goes for the next week and if it's really not good, I'll go back and see if they can adjust them. I'm a bit worried about sleeping. I have a list. I'm a bit worried about sleeping because I sometimes clench my jaw and I literally cannot. I feel like I'm gonna break this brace right here because if I clench, it's just gonna like push on this brace. Oh my god, what have I done to myself? Well, we'll see how it goes, shall we? So in the meantime, I've got... it's literally hurting my lips. Let's open up this little package, shall we? I've got all kinds of strange goodies that they've given me. A timer to brush my teeth with, this cute little brush, brush, special toothbrush and a mirror. That's nice of them. I thought I'd have to buy all this but I mean, for four and a half grand, you'd think that they'd give it to you so I'm glad that they did. They've even given me a special toothbrush to use and a special mouthwash which helps with like the soreness because it has like special aloe vera in it and special soothing stuff to help with the pain which I'm gonna be enduring for the next couple of days. I'm annoyed because I have a fancy dinner booked in three days. They said that it only hurts for the next 24 to 48 hours and then by day three, I should kind of get used to it and the pain should go away and I shouldn't have too much trouble eating but they said the next 48 hours is gonna be the worst that it's ever gonna be with the braces so I'm in for a treat. Let's open this stuff. Here's my wax. They showed me a little video afterwards like just introducing me to all this stuff and how to use it. Got all these little teeth things. Oh, another packet of wax. Good, so I've got extra. Okay, cool. Well, that's good. That's like all of it. I was gonna make sausage pasta tonight but I bought those ingredients before realising that I was getting my braces this week. I thought it was next week so I was not prepared at all. Yesterday was the day I realised I had to get my braces today. I was like, I have not prepared at all. So what I did, I got all cozy with nice hot chocolate and I watched the first episode of Brace Face and it made me feel a little bit better about it because she's cute. I'm gonna vlog and document the next 48 hours and we're gonna see how it goes. If I can lose this freaking whistle that I've got, that would be great and if I can get used to the list. I didn't need to do this. I did it out of pure vanity. I've made myself dinner and I'm going to do a first impressions of eating with braces. I was determined to make something normal rather than soup or mash. Let's try it.
