De-Braced, Braced, and Re-Braced

For the past 5 years I have been making monthly trips to the orthodontist.  Garrett started in braces 5 years ago.  



The day he got his 1st phase of braces off, Grant got his first phase put on. 



Then 2 years later, Grant got his 1st phase of braces off, the same day Garrett got his 2nd phase put on.


Well, it has been another 2 years.  Garrett FINALLY has beautiful, straight teeth.  The day his braces were removed, Gracie began phase 1 and Grant began phase 2.

  Honestly, I don't see an end in sight any time soon.  However, Garrett's teeth look so nice that it is worth every penny we are spending (I am pretty sure we have paid for our orthodontist's home by now).  I also don't mind giving up one Friday every month for the next 5 years for appointments.

There's nothing better than beautiful teeth and a beautiful smile...no matter the cost. You're children will be grateful their entire life...well maybe;)

This braces thing is a huge process to say the least but the end result is beautiful straight teeth. I also can't believe how much they all grow up from the time they put on the braces to the time they come off. It's amazing! So grown up and such pretty teeth!
