I broke my.....

QUADHELIX!!!!!

Yep you read that right. I broke my freaking quadhelix. I was eating day before yesterday morning and snapped one of the "arms" off. SO I went to my ortho to see what we were going to do about this small problem. I get all the way over there he takes one look at it and says it's fine. It's just an arm. My looks at my lower left side and says he wants to band my two lower teeth (teeth 5 and 6). this was something I was trying my hardest to avoid. They put not one not two but THREE spacers in between my teeth to make room for the bands. I HATE SPACERS!!!! THEY SUCK!!!!!! Ok so the spacer are finally in. I walk up to the front desk to make my next appointment for exactly one week later to have these damn little blue spacers taken out. Who knew something so small and colorful could cause so much pain? UGH anyway. The girl at the front desk says they don't have any openings for 2-3 weeks. Oh the joys of having one of the best orthos in the entire state. She makes my appointment for 2 weeks from today. I had to go back to my wonderful oh so comfy ortho chair and have these three spacers pulled out. You can't keep spacers for more than a week. They tend to fall out. UGH. I'm going to my dentist to see what my ins. company says I have to pay and getting the two teeth fixed so i wont have to get them banded. Bands HURT like hell. *sigh* the price of beauty. ok off to bed I go.
