KK It's back to being cold now :D You didn't miss out on to much. I might investigate those teflon coated ties you mentions just as an option so that I don't have to worry to much about staining. I've actually noticed that people mention how they or a family member have had braces more now, before ...

I made a promise to myself at a young age that no way was i going to get braces! But here I am and even th...

Thank you for your welcome!! :) I'm in Brisvegas! Some people have mentioned the glow in the dark, pearl or of course the silver or "smoke. I'm going to scrounge the internet and see what works best. At this stage I'm still getting used to the appearance of braces on my teeth but as I get more ...

The same thing happened to me this morning, though it wasn't as bad as some others have mentioned. Mostly (i think anyway) mine was due to the horrible dream I had last night (where my teeth feel out because of my braces! of all things to dream about :gavel:). I woke up this morning clenching my jaw...
