Well, today's the day I haven't really been looking forward to all week. ._.
(Technically not true, since I have yet to embarrass myself yet by breaking a social norm.)
Anyways, today's the day of my tooth uncovering process. Try to visualize this.
A tooth is growing at a 45 degree angle, and it's going to impact the root of my other tooth soon if we don't take care of this (thank goodness for x-rays). It's covered completely by gums, it never came out, so we've never seen it.
So what they're going to do is take a little laser, cut away some gum, stick a bracket on the tooth, attach a gold chain to the bracket (helps bring the tooth down) and attach the chain to my braces. Just like what they did to my other tooth.
I'll be a little swollen, but I'll be fine. :D
