LOL! some unknown forgotten time in 2002 i went to the dentist, not a private one but rather the government one. My big bro wanted a braces and i checked my teeth just for fun.
Dentist: you milk teeth not drop yet lar…cannot do braces!
Adrian: really? i still have my milk teeth? o.0 wth
Dentist: yeah, so ill put you on the waiting list!
There, my name on the waiting list. Then last week it came: the letter of invitation for my braces checkup. After 4 years…gosh!

After four years on waiting list and i had completely forgotten bout it.. -.-
I sacrificed my genting trip with my friends because of this. Not that i really need braces. My friends say, harr? but your teeth not that bad! how come need braces?
Yeah, rite. So i did my own experiment. First i bit my flesh with my teeth to see the shape. It didnt really work out so i tried it on the apple next:
OMHG! look at the solo king tooth at the upper jaw coming out! This is definately not Snow White’s bite on the poison apple…
So theres this dentist appointment yesterday and the dentist started a conversation with me. I shall call him Dr.Teeth
Dr.Teeth: So how you doin now?
Adrian: Fine. on holiday now, my pre u just finished.
Dr.Teeth: ohh where did u study?
Adrian: Taylors.
Dr.Teeth: oh..so what are your plans next?
Adrian: im still very undecided but ill probably take Biotech
Dr.Teeth: BIOTECH?! JOBLESS AIYO JOBLESS YOU KNOW?! (repeat:x3)
Adrian: -.- but then the 9th Malaysian Plan- our country is focusing on biotechnologist!
adrian->trying to act smart
Dr.Teeth: aiya wait till they actually make the plan a reality.
haha but then his words make abit of sense. Why amm i targeting biotech at the first place? interest? no, i was still very undecided. Before Pre-U i havent decide, after Pre-U i say the same thing..
WHAT IF MALAYSIA HAVE TOO MANY BIOTECHNOLOGIST? then i have to start putting ads on this blog to make more money. Malaysia, eh. Things said easily but not done properly! not to say that i criticize the government or anything, just stating the truth XD
baccck to my braces thingy, so Dr.Teeth put that plastic like chewing gum like mould into my mouth to get the shape. ewww. then i got the letter to go x-ray my teeth at anytime i want at the gov hospital nearby my place..haha
Braces in UNI? im not sooo sure bout it. According to mummy, ill have difficulties eating, and i have to pull out maybe 4 strong teeth just for the sake of beauty? worth it or not? i know many friends who had once put on braces and now have beautiful sweet smile.
My next appointment is on the 29 JAN next year. by that time ill have to make a decision…to put braces or not to put…what do you think? are braces on guys a turn-off factor?
li anne says:
Haha!Why is guys with braces a turn off??Dun reli get that..then wat bout girls who wear?they are a turn on? -.-
anywayy…based on exp,well.it does come with a price.ur mom was right…it does hurt when u eat but only at the beginning and after u tighten ur braces..but some ppl dun feel pain la..its individual but bliff me,u’ll get used to it in no time..but well.i din regret wearing it la..tho i kinda regret that it cud have been better..so adrian..make up ur mind quick!And the next time Dr Teeth asks u wat u wanna do again,tell him : Dentist.

actually there are many who have their braces in their 20s .. so no worries.
But if you wear braces, your teeth are easily to get dirty (like food get stucked and stuff) so make sure your teeth are clean!! Otherwise, it’ll turn off girls.
By the way, it’s a painful experience. Just to tell u beforehand. But it’s worth the pain.
Good luck!
