Tin Green

It finally happened.  The big girly got what she's been waiting for and this is her before picture.  Don't mind the angle that makes it look like her whole face is teeth.  The gap in her front teeth had gotten quite substantial but everything is spreading beautifully.
And this is her happy after picture.  She was so happy and excited to finally have elastics and get to pick her own color and everything.  She was a little bit sore, but handled it like a trooper and has adjusted to the new metal mouth quite nicely.  She is diligent about brushing too which is nice to Mom to not have to worry too much about her teeth rotting out under the brackets.
I can't believe my baby girl is big enough to have braces, but so thankful that there is this technology so she can have a smile she's not shy about.  What a beautiful girl!
