Straighten Those Toothers

We were excited to learn that Ellie was ready for braces.
She has been waiting ever since that big snaggle tooth first grew in to put it in it's proper place.
She has always been a good sport about it.  All her friends had similar teeth issues and they had all nicknamed their most offending teeth; "Snaggle, Fang, and Twisted". 

We are looking at 2 years of regular old braces.  Even with all that crowding she should escape without anything too drastic, just "elastics" and our "English" orthodontist calls them.  Wish us luck.








I just laughed so hard when I saw how croocked that wire is.  It's like a jack-o-latern mouth.
But what a difference this first month has made.  They are looking so much straighter already.

This is her "thanks for getting me braces" face.
Doesn't she look so grateful?
