Getting my braces
Braces. Oh what a monstrous word I know. That’s what I told my mom as we wandered into the Orthodontist. I must have been trying to blow off this visit for years now. I knew I had to get braces, but I just kept that annoying little voice inside my head whispering every now and then, “You aren’t going to get braces, you aren’t, don’t even think about it.”
As we strolled into the brown building, I started walking until I found a seat, and watched as my mom checked in. Once my mother was done she walked over to me, and sat beside me. We both waited for what felt like hours.Then, a lady with charcoal black hair, and snow white skin came out from a door. I looked over and heard …show more content…
My mom was standing in front of me. We both started to walk towards the lady. The lady gestured her hand towards the door, telling us to follow her. Now that I think back, I should've ran, I should have darted straight to the car and never look back, but of course I didn’t. As we walked the lady held the door for us. Then she rushed back in front of us like it was a race. As we walked to the room, I saw pictures of teeth, so many pictures of teeth, everywhere I looked there were pictures. Pictures teeth to my left and pictures of teeth to my right. We took a sharp turn to the left and we were a in sky blue room. The lady explained to me that the doctor would be here soon, and that they will take x-rays of my teeth, and soon the fun will begian, they would put the harsh metal on my teeth. We waited for a little bit, not as long as we did in the waiting room, soon the doctor came in and told me all the life hacks of having braces. He also showed me a list of all the delicious food I will have to be missing out on for the next three years. He kept talking and talking. It was pretty outstanding how long he talked, he could be a swimmer. After he was finally done talking to us, he guided my mom and I into the x-ray room. He started strapping wires to on onto my face. This whole process took longer than 15 minutes. When we finally got the right amount of pictures taken, the doctor took my mother and I into the braces room, where you get your braces on
