Now both sides of my teeth touch! I had the last of the temporary crowns replaced with permanent crowns this morning at 8:00 a.m.

Exactly one year ago today, I broke my face and since that time my jaw was so out of alignment that my teeth no longer touched on the right side. While replacing all the fractured teeth, my dentist set up the crowns so they sat lower on the left side and higher on the right side so I should finally be able to chew properly.

My dentist was like a little kid this morning. He was SO happy that he was able to fix this problem and went on and on about how much thought he'd put into it. I was not only happy for me, I was happy for him that this made his day!

My front teeth also no longer rub on the front of the bottom teeth- so no worries about wearing them down to the nubbins (<- not a word!)

In other news, I get to see my sister and nephew today! I'm so excited! I even left the tree up, which is SO unlike me, so we could have pictures of the baby in front of the Christmas tree. I miss my sister so much that may just kidnap my sis and nephew and not let them go home. Tee hee. It WAS an awful lot of fun when we lived together.

Yup, today's going to be a GREAT day. A heckuva lot better than this day last year.
