I think it will be a an improved, fresher, version of yourself.

It's like having your hair blow dried at the hairdresser's...you look a bit different but it's still you. I suppose it's the same with the teeth, they'd still be the same teeth only they'd be in the correct place and alignment! So a smarter version of you!

I'm still in braces but I can say for sure I look better as my teeth are straightening.

Straight teeth: CHECK

Smaller fanny because I can't eat with these darn turbos: CHECK

I'm thinking there will be all kinds of reasons to look better after braces! :)
