Some years later, before starting high school, her parents helped pay to get those teeth bonded so she would look somewhat normal and not like a goblin (as her husband now so kindly puts it). However, over the years, some of the bonding had come off, leaving her looking for new solutions.
She then came across a dentist who offered her that solution: porcelain veneers. The girl was uncomfortable with the price and told the business she would not pay $1000 per tooth. Several weeks later, she received a phone call from the dentist's staff, telling her the price had dropped more than half (almost 3 times the total). So, she agreed.
Okay, okay, I'll stop with the story-telling. I had my teeth done today, so I'll post a pic. Yeah, I think they're huge but I know it's something I have to get used to. In fact, I laughed at myself in the mirror when I got home because although it looks better, they're still big. Just so you know, my lips and gums are still swollen from the shots (yes, I had to get shots in my gums to numb the teeth). But this will do for now:
Don't mind the funny smile (ignore the irony), I still can't feel the upper part of my mouth. Which is pretty funny in itself.
So there, my new smile!
