Re: Late to the game but here at last!

Vanessaness,

Welcome! I loved the Cream of Broccoli Soup reference! A lot of foods will not be friends at first!

Cute that your daughter has also gotten braces at the same time too. Wish you both all the best and look forward to hearing about the progress!

Yurs in smiles,

Shane

Re: New to the club!

Hi Rae! Firstly, welcome to the world of braces! You, like all of us, will look very 'braceful' once the braces are on! I thought the Nanny McPhee comment was hilarious! Secondly, I just turned 25 and had my braces put on my top teeth in early February! It's never too late to want something / achiev...

Everyone's got a story: what's yurs?

Greetings everyone, I recently turned 25 and commenced with my orthodontic treatment. I have a class III malocclusion which entails a cross-bite and under-bite. I've always been ashamed of my teeth and I have not smiled in over 17 years. You may ask: why did you wait so long to seek / get treatment....

Re: New to the world of Metal Mouth.

That's interesting that the ortho didn't place the brackets. The assistant put my brackets on, but then the ortho placed/moved them to where they should be... p.s. I didn't see the link to your blog? The link seems to have been removed again. However, i'm not sure why. i'll post again: http://letst...

Re: Dos and Don'ts for Unbraced People Embracing Braced Peop

Don't say, "you look...well...'braceful' so to speak"

Don't ask me if I can pick up satellite radio with all my wires and coils.


Don't tell me that I look like Lisa Simpson when she got her braces.

Re: getting used to braces

I just had my braces put on my top teeth on Feb. 6. I have two coils (springs) and it feels terrible! Thank goodness for wax!

Here's a pic attached! My teeth are cooked so I hope I don;t scare anyone. :(
