Introducing myself! I will be a Mom in braces at 42 as well effective August 8th! Initially I wanted the Inspire version but after doing some research I have changed my mind and will be going with the Damon version because I am worried about staining (I LOVE my coffee). My treatment time is expected to be 12-18 months...ahhhh! My main issue is spacing after having one wisdom tooth removed and subsequent and horrifying shifting in addition to a slight overbite. I'm apprehensive, but very excited : )

Hullo! I was feeling a little on the 'older' side for getting braces and Im nearly 35. I think what made me feel odd about is that my eldest daughter is about to get hers on - only a week after me! So Im really happy to see older or should I say ' more mature' ha ha folk getting it done too!
