Actually my Ortho does not give me the chance to chose - he's only using those clear ligs.....and that's why I am really paranoid about coffee & red wine now (have read your experiences with these clear ones already)

Anyways, I am getting wire ligatures soon anyway :?

wouldnt pink look like bubble gum? I dont think im allowed to have colors :) (mom hates the thought of me having braces) :) PLUS EXPENSIVE!

Do you have to pay for colors for each adjustment?
Do everyone with braces have adjustments?

Im so anxious to get braces. I been waiting for 2 years.

Our ortho is the only one in town so its hard to get appointments. You need to book 3 months in advance. But I finally got all 3 appointments close together.

eoberhauser, are those "pearl" ligs in the last picture you posted on page 11? How does that color (whichever it is) resist staining? I like it and would love to get it at my next adjustment. Thanks!
