Banded

After a little pleading, I got an appointment with the Ortho. I now have a new piece of metal to show off. He banded my crown and attached the bracket to the band, literally a piece of metal surrounding my tooth. [N, more metal - a new circuit!] It was a little painful, but mostly because my gum was sore from having the loose bracket rubbing against it, now it’s fine. According to the Ortho the bracket came off, because at some point the force from the archwire would have been more than the force attaching the bracket to the tooth, which seems like I should have felt something, but I didn’t.
