I'm 32 and this is my second time in braces. I first had them from 10 - 12 but failed to wear my retainer.

I was only 11 when I got my bottom braces on, and almost twelve by the time my top ones were put on. In third grade I had a tooth pulled, followed by an oral surgery in fourth grade and another after fifth grade, and then finally braces in sixth grade. A month before seventh grade I got my top braces on and in eighth grade had another oral surgery. Still have yet to get my wisdom teeth out, and still haven't finished braces yet.

21! I felt so weird at first being an "adult" with braces but then I realized how many adults have them and now I don't even realize I have them on. :)
