Part 4 : method of cleaning braces



been a month of living with it..cleaning was not easy...extra care should be given to your teeth..sometimes you tend to look at mirror more longer at your teeth than at your face..hehehe..
my dentist taught me how to clean my teeth..he said to brush my teeth like normal with normal toothbrush and buy this small spiral toothbrush to slip in between the metal braces and parts that is hard to reach with normal toothbrush. that's it! but i thought it was kind of easy..too easy i suppose so i did some research on method of cleaning it. what my Dentist was right.of course he's the dentist.the professionals!but there are some more method. like flossing!which is hard..and i dont know how to floss..
Cleaning braces is important!because braces trap foods easier.and this mean plaque formation is easier..and as others concern plaque can lead to gum disease and enamel damage..when you brush you teeth and sometimes its bleeding..then that's the sign of plaque formation in your teeth..
brushing is the main method of cleaning..but what's more important is the way you brush..is it the effective way?do i brush effectively?i dont know either..hehehe..well..lets together share this info which i obtained from the internet.


a month living with braces

well..before i start to the main topic..just an intro of what's been happening in my life now..my work life?well..now half of my life is about work..workaholic?no lah!just that that's the main focus now..but lately i'm enjoying more of my life since not much of work load there is at office..just been doing models for some projects for the past 1 and half month.boring!my fingers all aches and my arms..but sometimes interesting..it's been a long time since i last did models..that is when i was once a stud..n tell you what?the models i did for my office is much much more nicer than the one i did in school..hahaha..so passionate to finish each models..
after work time..it's life at home..i enjoy it!since you can say everyday i went home at 6pm..sometimes cant wait for 6pm to arrive...eager to reach home everyday..(since when ha?)hahaha..though i dont really have anything to do at home.but that's the fact now!even now i'm lazy to go to the gym..i heard that everyone at the gym was asking about me...i dont knowlah..i dont have the heart to go to gym..i just want to stay home and watch 'GELORA DI HATI SARA'..hahaha..i love the drama..i love Fauziah Latiff's act..plus some more i'm busy preparing something in plan for the upcoming year 2009. it's a small business. well,better start small than nothing right?the point is i dont want to talk about this..just yet!cos it's still under planning and construction...when it comes for real..then it's time for another blog..right now what's more interesting to talk is about my braces...ok..straight...never realized how quick time pass by..i've been wearing braces for a month now..and today at 4pm i got another appoinment with my lovely dentist Dr. Zarin..not sure what he's going to do today but i promise will write about it..so how's living with braces?it's been fine..getting used to it...sometimes my friends worries about me more than i do..cos i just eat what i feel like eating..guess will never loose my weight though wearing braces..hahhaa..you know what?i realized that i curb for eating much much more with braces on than without..wah!so abnormal right?people tend to less eating but i tend to eat more!and with this 'lazy bones' nowadays to go to gym...wonder do i gain weight?huh!sigh!oh no!but i still can fit my clothes..n my office mate asked wether i loose weight cos she said my jeans look loose..hurm????jeans loose or my thigh loose?better buy a measure weight to be more confirm..

story of braces part 3


well..quite some times since i jot something down in here..been busy lately with my personal life..going there,going here..back at home tired already..almost got no time to surf.
so,back to the topic. so i already got my braces on last tuesday, 25th Nov 2008. so today is already the 11th day of me carrying this little wire in my mouth..not so much pain i would say..just that it's been quite hard in consuming something. people said that it is suffering..suffer in pain n in eating..guess maybe i'm one of the others that didnt really suffer in wearing those thing. as for a close example..my friend...she experienced ulcers all over her mouth when she extract her teeth..and the first few weeks putting braces on she hardly cant chew anything..so just eat porridge..that's why she was kind of surprised seeing me can eat easily without suffering..erm..dont knowlah..maybe i'm just so lucky or what..but i did follow everything what my dentist ask me to do..maybe because of me following orders helps..i dont know..guess different people different experience. so for those who's been wanting to get braces on, but afraid of the 'penyeksaan' i advise just go on with the intention..dont listen to what others say because you never know until you experience it yourself.
Talking about the day, 25th Nov 2008. i had appointment at about 2.30 pm and guess what time i finished?4.30 pm..approx. 2 hrs.. okay to make story short..i'll just tell the procedures k?
  1. 1st step - chain are installed. on my previous post i said that rubber band are installed so that gap can be provided?well, here's the reason why the gap are necessary..to put the chain inside so that wire can be tighten to its ends. i had problem with my below left teeth as the rubber band went out of its place leaving no gap between the teeth. at first my dentist struggle hard to put the chain in. push really really hard and i cannot deny it.. i had no prob with the other three teeth except for this side. not really that hurt but at this side..huh!really hurting plus looking at my dentist really struggling make it more painful..at last Dr Zarin give up..hahaha..so the below left side no chain is install,instead he put some kind of tube.
  2. 2nd step - put on bracket.bracket are those 'jewel' that installed on the surface of each teeth by using strong glue (bonder). the bracket will take the force from archwire (refer step 3) and traslate it to the tooth. the brackets are different from one tooth type to the other so that they can all work the best they can for a perfect smile.
  3. 3rd step - Archwire are wired. Archwire is the “wire” that holds all elements in place. The arch goes from left to right and the brackets are connected to it. This element is of a huge importance since it’s the one to “force” the teeth into their proper position together with the elastics. At first the archwire looks “jagged” since the brackets are placed at the same distance from the end of the tooth. Since one tooth is placed higher than the other, the patient will have a “crooked” archwire. The wire tends to go to its original form, thus forcing the teeth to go up or down or rotate until they are all set. like mine now!if you see it, mine looks crooked.
  4. 4th step - small rubber called ligatures are put between those wire and brackets to 'tie' them together.ligatures come in various colour that we can request for. some people like to make it as fashion statement. well..you know like accessories on your teeth and you can get creative. as for mine, i let Dr Zarin to decide..so he chose orange..not bad..i mean i like it..
  5. one more step - elastics. these might get used in order to help with the jaw problems. as i got no problem with my jaw line so i dont need those things.
owh..by the way..pic above is not mine..just something i got from the internet..

Ayat - ayat cinta

this is one of my favourite song..i just love the song!and the touching lyrics.it just made me appreciate love and the person i love more and more! sometimes by just listening to this song, can made me cry..hahaha..been sensitive and emotional nowadays...why huh?

Desir pasir di padang tandus
Segersang pemikiran hati
Terkisah ku di antara cinta yang rumit

Bila keyakinanku datang
Kasih bukan sekadar cinta
Pengorbanan cinta yang agung
Ku pertaruhkan

reff:
Maafkan bila ku tak sempurna
Cinta ini tak mungkin ku cegah
Ayat-ayat cinta bercerita
Cintaku padamu
Bila bahagia mulai menyentuh
Seakan ku bisa hidup lebih lama
Namun harus ku tinggalkan cinta
Ketika ku bersujud

Bila keyakinanku datang
Kasih bukan sekedar cinta
Pengorbanan cinta yang agung
Ku pertaruhkan

repeat reff

Ketika ku bersujud

funny how time can change life..

it's true...as time time pass by,many things around us have change..especially people around us. i've been longing to write this thing up..but maybe at that time wasn't really feel to write..
this is a story about me n my frens..i dont really know wat really happens btwn us..it's just that we've been separated from each other..each day feel like we never even been frens..like not knowing each other anymore..and what leave me on confusion is that without really knowing why?what have happens to our frenship?who's fault is it?mine?or just we doesnt really meant to be frens?dat's y i name it time changes our life..
actually, i really miss this one person..an old fren of mine..which i already consider her as my soul friends..we've been friends since high school..together into the same school,same uni,same course..i realy enjoy our friendship..however,langit tak selalunya cerah..she started to keep a distance from me. i dont know why..maybe because she's tired of me?she's bored with me?or she already found the love of her life..someone that she's longing to live with..until she forgot the meaning of friendship..i dont really like people who actually forgets their friends when they found their right person. in that case what are friends for?why do we actually become friends if one day when you found your love, you actually forget and abandon all your surrounding friends whos been with you all this while?whos been supporting you?who's been with you through good and bad time?why?unless that friend doesnt mean anything to you..i dont in what circumstances i say all this things..but it really hurts my feeling so much..people surrounding me tell me to just let go of her..to let her enjoy her life..and just go on with my own..that's what i've been doing..i am enjoying my life now..i have almost everything what i want in this life..i have my family..i already found the true love of mine..(if he is meant for me, insyaallah)i have real friends around me..but i kept thinking about her...i miss her..every single day..i miss our good old days...sometimes when i was thinking about her,thinking about what our relationship have been through,thinking about what happens between us..few clear drops fall from my eyes..i cant really let her go..it's as if she's a part of mine now..i just love her...i cant lie to myself..maybe i cant lie to the people around me..i can pretend like i dont care what happen but deep inside me..only god knows...i always bear in mind that why should i appreciate someone who doesnt appreciate me?why do i keep thinking about the person who never think about me?i got no explanation for all this..i know she owe me some explaination..at least tell me what happen..is it my fault?or what..but i know it will keep unexplained..no matter what happens..she will always be someone i meaningful to me..i hope she's happy with her own life now without me...and i'm sorry for what i have done puposely or unpurposely..i'm sorry friend..you'll always be my friend even though i'm not your friend anymore. my heart is just too stubborn to let our friendship end just like that.once again i'm sorry friend..
to another good friend of mine..thank you for always being there for me..i love you too..sometimes i feel like i'm a burden to you but you never even complain about it..hope that you and him with stay in love forever as i hope that our friendship will remains forever n one last thing that i hope will never happen to our friendship..that you never change. i want you to stay this way..cos i love you just the way you are. hope you feel the same way about me and about us.

Something in plan..

erm..just got home from seeing my dentist.it's a start..well,one of a thing that i'm planning..this is the first visit..i mean not the first visit to this dentist but the first time in fulfilling my plan..what is my plan?actually, i plan to do orthodontics treatment..in an easy meaning..braces!yup!finally, i've made up my mind to wear one. it's not an easy decision i would say..it took me a year to finally make decision.cos i've accepted the way i look.thanks to Allah for giving me this face.i love it..so this braces wearing is not purposely for aesthetic value but more for my health. after doing some research and reading on the internet and browse thru other's experience on forum,i think i'm prepared for it.though a bit 'takut'! for some reasons...
  1. takut sakit!people said it is suffering for a few months!cannot eat that and thislah...erm..but on the way,i can be 'kurus' kot..hahaha
  2. i'm afraid of how i would look like wearing it!
  3. i sayang my 'taring'!it would not be there any longer...hahaha..
  4. i'm afraid of how i would look like after i complete the treatment..cantikkah wajahku?
dont worry..i'll tell the whole process of me getting braces..so that i would not forget..anyhow,it is once in a lifetime...unless kalau gigi u senget baliklah bcos of tak jaga..
Nway, back to the dentist story..the clinic is in Taman Putra. Klinik Pergigian Dr Zarin. i've been there b4. once doing my scaling..so my mum n my late dad doing their teeth treatment. i had appointment at 1pm. so met the dr. explained why i was there for.so the dr start explaining the procedures n wat ever that i should know.most of it i already know cos of my research!!so there is no chance of anyone trying to cheat me ha...but this Dr is sporting..bole nyanyi2. kacau2 nurse dia..n even called my name as if we've known each other well enough.so i guess i have no prob with the dr. can get along well..maybe we can b frens..so,there are only 2 kinds of braces provided at his clinic. metal n ceramic braces. metal cost rm3k without mouth preparation and ceramic cost around rm4k. i decided to take metal becos metal is more convenient and easy to handle and clean. method of payment. rm300 installment and after each treatment pay some more..depends on us..cheap ha?other clinics will charge more!rm4k for metal braces and rm1k for installment..so dr. Zarin's is the cheapest that i've search plus close to my house..so it would not be a problem.so he did took mould for my teeth..that's all wat he did.then i set another appoinment for next session.that would be on this wed 19/11/08 at 8pm..maybe to extract my teeth!!uiks!!sakitnyer!so today's csession cost me rm15 for the mould.
