Lisp

Quick little update here. Went out with some friends last night and before heading out after seeing the braces for the first time just about all of them noticed my lisp.  I said to them I think its actually getting worse and I'm not sure if that has anything to do with my teeth moving around or what but it was pretty obvious they said which sucks.  I personally still don't think its that bad its just words with "S" in them I think is when its most noticeable.  I can definitely tell that my teeth are moving already only a week in so that's pretty cool.  The wax has definitely helped because the back edges have been getting longer at each end and poking into my cheek pretty badly.  I'm hoping they will callus over soon so it doesn't hurt as much.  That's all for now.  I'll try to post some new pics next time.

  1. Oh the lisp, I feel your pain. Nothing is worse than when people point it out. I find mine gets better and worse depending on where my bite is on any given day. With the wires, after a couple months I didn't feel anything back there anymore but I did have to go in and have them cut between appointments a couple times. Good luck with the braces, hopefully the lisp resolves as your bite changes.
