Hi Richard and welcome! Also, congrats on getting braces :D Thank you thank you!! Not as good as some people on here I'd have to disagree there ;). Looking at your two pictures and comparing them side by side, I can see a great difference in your 4.5 weeks of having braces! :thumbsup:. Awe thank yo...

Those are some great changes in those 2 photos! I love seeing people's progress photos. It really helps me have patience with my own teeth! My teeth are still wobbly almost 2 months in. I can't bite into anything harder than a banana with my front teeth. I put it down to them still being on the mov...

Before braces: http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/9775/photo1odw.th.jpg 4.5 Weeks in (Yes sorry about saying 5 weeks or more in, I realized I got the wires on the 12th of last m...

Don't feel so bad, I'm with Western Dental adn feel I may have cavities with my new 4 week braces when they claim there weren't any left... *sigh* they found they said the worst and longest one they've worked on ever (1 hour on 1...

It's always amazing seeing changes so early! For me it's been extremely recent, and I have noticed my two front teeths gap almost completely close. They also stick out to the left sideways like a sideways nail sticking out of a wall, so I was so embarrassed of my teeth! but they have cleared up and ...

Oh god, I think some people just have this timer in their brain when it comes to metal against their teeth. For me, I can't stand the sound of any metal clinging together.. change excessively being moved around on a table or counted drives me nuts, and the sound of clinging forks and spoons is the W...

okay.. so i dont know how to post pictures.. there seems to be an issue with the URL when it told me to host on imageshack which is what i did , then i tried every single embedding option possible lol..

Hey everyone, I'm completely new here. I will be around for the next 18-24 months for my treatment time. I'd like to introduce myself, my names Richard, 20 years old nice to meet all of you and look forward to getting to know you all. I got braces fully (with the wires) the 12th of November and they...
