i'm going in tomorrow for my 2nd adjustment. I am so anxious for this to be over with. I am used to my braces now, and I am not worried about my appearance anymore because my top teeth are coming together which i think enhances the way i look, even with braces. :) i'm off to my apartment for college...

My second to the middle teeth on top are moving closer to my two front teeth every day, which makes ...

ah thank you so much for your reply. i dont get the surgery until next summer, but i am terrified. i have never had any surgery. i have only had braces for three days, but i am taking them pretty well. they are no big deal. it's the surgery im worried about... so is it worth it?
