My ortho told me which kinds of braces he deals with at the original consult appointment. I didn't have to decide until yesterday when I was sitting in the chair to get them put on!

I decided to go with the In-Ovation R's (metal) top and bottom. I only got the tops done yesterday and will get the bottoms in a few months.

I had a choice of ceramic or metal. I asked my ortho what he prefers
and he prefers metal only because it usually the treatment time is shorter.
Honestly it didn't matter to me anyway so I chose the metal.
Whatever you choose I'm sure you will be happy.
Happy Bracing! :tingrin:
