No! I won't mom! I can't! It will ruin my look! No! Please no! I beg you! My friends will tease me and I won't be able to go to school anymore. |
You have to, Sandy. You know what the dentist would say. No prizes for you from the treasure box. I have braces and I'm doing fine. |

Number one, I don't care about prizes from the "treasure box", I'm 12 years old. Number 2, I have perfect teeth. So what if it takes me an hour to finish a bowl of cereal. Number 3, I'll think of that later. But no Mom, I don't want them. |
Sandy's teeth were line dancing in her mouth. There was enough space for everyone to do the Macarena. The adult teeth, waiting for their turn, couldn't figure out how to join in the line. |

Hello, Sandy. I'm Dr. Ivan Teethkino. Don't worry. I'm not going to do anything difficult today. I can see you are scared. Well, don't be. Today we will take x-rays and make a plaster model of your bite. |
Sandy was so scared she turned into a scaredy cat. She ran and hid behind her mother. |
|
It's strange. I'm scared and happy at the same time. Today I'll have my braces put on. My Mom just finished with her braces and she feels great. |
Sandy just had her braces put on and she refuses to come out of the orthodontist's office. I brought her these flowers to make her feel better. Later today we'll go to the beach to celebrate, |

That's your reflection on my shiny sparkling new braces. I picked out my colors from a website called Yo, It's Time For Braces. It didn't take long to get used to them. |

Sandy's
brother wanted to demonstrate his new black belt in karate. " Does anyone
want to volunteer to be my victim?", he said. Sandy felt confident
she could take on anybody. She put on her mouthguard and took him
on. Sandy's friends cheered her on. Later, they went out for
ice cream. |

We're free! Those braces were like a jail to us. The pressure is off! Hold on, do you know who I am? If you don't, I'm one of Sandy's teeth. Back to the subject. We're Free! Everybody Disco! |
