For the first time in about a year and a half, I am able to touch the roof of my mouth with my tongue. No more disgusting noises at the dinner table and mispronunciations of gs and ngs.

While my braces are still very present, the palate expander is out. Hooray!

When I got mine out, the gap in my front teeth was big enough to stick my tongue through.

What fun things have you been sticking through yours?

The gap was big enough before I got any orthodontic work. There are braces stretching across them now. I'm just happy that I ate a banana a minute ago, and I didn't have to swallow any of it twice or hock it into the sink.

Congrats!

Palette expanders are such a pain. [Frown] I had to go back to the orthodontist the first day I had mine because it kept pinching me and I was in tears.

How much longer do you have to have the braces?

It's far enough in the future that he hasn't even started hinting. I'm thinking two more years.

Maybe I'm the only one...but I thought it felt really good when you had the palate expander tightened. It was like it was itching an itch that I didn't know I had.

But congrats on getting it off. [Party]
