Expander

These are my new expanders.  I got them yesterday.  It feels weird right now.  I cannot eat taffy, tootsie rolls, star bursts, or sugar daddies.  And I can't eat hard foods like candy , some candies are not hard.  And the rest I can still eat.  The little hole in the middle is for the key.  We turn it once a day, 20 times.  I have to keep my expander in for 6 months.

Kellen says, "Does it hurt: or does it tickle?"
Chloe says, "What food can you eat?"
Grandma says, "I was not sure what expanders would look like. Very impressive. In six months your smile will be even more amazing than it is now!"

I had head gear when I was younger. It attached to the inside of my mouth and wrapped around the back of my head. Sometimes my mouth was sore, but it was worth it!
