Its a somewhat silly question amidst the more serious forum talk.....but today I went for my adjustment checkup, now into my 7th week or so of braces, and decided to actually put something other than clear
Black! I was told that was a bold move Its best for not changing colour with the foods.
When i first had my braces on i got black and purple ligs and i loved them, i regret not taking any pics with me having them. They made my teeth look whiter too.
I have black ligs on my bottom teeth...but its on metal...idk if i would actually put color on my ceramics....maybe u could post some pics so we can see what they look like??!!

De bonding on October 23, 2007!
I had black powerchains the last month and I actually really liked them. I was hesitant but I couldn't make a decision and when I did, they actually looked very nice.
Full upper and lower metal braces put on May 12, 2005.
Braces free as of April 18, 2006!
Temporarily rebraced Nov. 21, 2006. ( I think I've moved past temporary. )
Awe man, I had an adjustment today-I was thinking of black & pink or black & red, but I chickened out. Instead I got silver and a white powerchain. Ive already tried pink,babyblue, maroon--never black. Oh well next time
I have Black ones on MEtal braces. I think that is the best choice for a grown person, it looks more neat. i am 18, i think colored ones would still fit me but i like the black ones better, they go with what ever you wear. if you get red, green, blue or any other color, it looks weird when you wear a different color. you have to match. lol.
I might try metalic black next time.
