Hi everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I just got braced close to two weeks ago and am now on a looong road of treatment (20-24 mos) that will be well worth it in the end.

Take care for now,
sn

Thank you Snowbunny and Belmikry!

Belmikry- I am also 21 and doing this for the first time, so it looks like we're in the same boat! I also checked out your thread with the progress you've made so far and you're teeth look like they're doing AMAZING! Good luck with everything! I'll definitely have to post some pics up soon and tell my story!

welcome to the twenty something crowd of braces!

... yes, I'm super e xcited by my progress- although I know when I look into the mirror, I don't see any changes, but the pictures really show improvement over time, its like when you are a kid waiting to grow taller, you don't notice the growth day by day until you see pictures beside someonee

looks like you got braced on feb 29th? cool! I was on the 30th- we should have a race- lol

my treatment time is 21 months, and I agree it seems like so long- but I've been told it will go by fast [fingers crossed]
glad I can be some inspiration- what kind of braces do you have? any chance of pictures?

Hey Belmikry!
I was actually braced on January 31st. It will be fun to track our progress together and I'll post some pics and my story as soon as I get through this week (studying for my first exams of the semester are consuming my time right now!). As for what kind of braces I have, I've got clear uppers and metal lowers. Talk soon!
