I would do it over again, but I might do some things differently !

Absolutely! I would do it very much sooner. I would have more consultations and... I might choose a different ortho!

I would use a different ortho, I would make sure my job was safe before getting banded, I would get clear on top at least.

And I cant say I would have done this sooner because without dental insurance I would still be saving for each procedure, so actually I would have a much longer time till braces.

If money didn't matter I would have had them as a teenager or when I was married so I could have them done with.
