I was 23 when I got them and unless my treatment time ends up 4 months longer than planned, I will be 25 when they come off.

I had mine put in when I was 25 and removed at 26. I feel like it made me look younger but besides that, it didn't affect anything.

I got my braces on at 36! They have been on since Feb 14, 2014 and this journey is one of the many. I have needed them however we couldn't afford them.

I got mine today at the grand "old" age of 32, but why now?
A few things
Financial security
Relationship stability
A sense of taking control of something which has got me down for years :jump:
