KK, thanks for your help with the ticker.

I would like my ticker to be in my signature line. How can I move it?? I tried to copy the url into the signature line. I even tried dragging it to the signature line...Please help.

I chickened out of my first adjustment. I'm not looking forward to the pain. I have to reschedule.

You are very lucky to have insurance that covers. I'm pay $4200 over 8 months :shock: I can not really afford to do it. However, I'm doing it anyway. It just means that there is one less outfit that I can buy each month. But that's okay, my smile will last forever. So, good luck with the braces. You...

MOVE IT! Well, that's just what their doing. My teeth are on the move. I can not believe how quickly they are shifting. :shock: My front tooth is the reason why I decided to get braces. It was slanted and I could NOT STAND IT! Well 1 month into it and BADDA BING BADDA BOOM! All straigtened out. I am...

Yes, I can definitely see the movement in your teeth. It's only been 1 month, imagine your smile after a year I had my braces for 1 month now and I see a big difference.

Keep taking pics. You'll be amazed at the difference month to montlh.

When you go to the pharmacy, try to buy a couple different brands. You will see a difference between them and may find one that stays on good. My ortho gave me cheap wax that was hard to spread! :( But I was able to find better brands at the pharmacy :wink: .

Your teeth are coming along nicely. :lol: they look great! You went through a lot to finally get them on and now it's all worth while. :D

I was able to get my bottom braces on. OUCH! I wanted to go back and have them removed. I was in so much pain. 3 days later the pain was gone.

My teeth are moving nicely and its only been about 3 weeks Can't wait for more progress!

Great KK. I love the bright colors. I'm a teacher and my kids will be in on Monday. Can not wait to get their reaction! :D

Finally, I have my braces. I am bold with it. :D I have silver braces with get this....HOT PINK bands. :shock: My smile literally lights up the room. The braces are on the top only. I am supposed to get the bottom done tomorrow but my spacers KEEP COMING OUT! So I will probably will have to wait ano...

Well, today is the big day. What I've been wanting for the last 10 years is about to happen. 7 hours till my braces. :D Hope it doesn't hurt too bad :shock: Well I will have aspirin ready just in case. Hopefully I can post pics on Monday. I have plenty of soft foods. So I guess I'm ready. Watch out ...

Congratulations , you are on your way to a beautiful smile. I go in for braces today. I am a little nervous but more excited than nervous. I hope my experience is as good as yours was.
Congratulations again, Hope you see changes soon.

I know what you mean about feeling self concious about your appearance. I have a horrible overbite and my front tooth is horribly crooked. Whenever I meet people I ALWAYS THINK THEY ARE LOOKING AT MY TEETH! Maybe they are, maybe not. But it bothers me so bad. I can not wait til Friday. I'm 29 and wi...

[color=darkred][/color]Good Luck! Make sure you have soft foods available. I know what you mean about being nervous but excited at the same time. I've been on vacation for 6 weeks and go back to work on Monday. I can't wait to show off my braces. Again GOOD LUCK :D Think about the end result. When p...
