Retainer in fifth grade. Headgear in seventh. Braces until, I think, eleventh grade. The jaw-clenching and grinding caused by the chronic pain of the last eight years wrecked most of it. These are Invisalign braces, which I was recommended for a variety of reasons including that they would interfere less in my day-to-day life; this appears to be entirely untrue. I know it's the first day, but right now I'm just trying to figure out how I'm going to make it through the next year without ceasing to eat entirely.
