31 year old male from Belfast, Ireland
Had my braces since 16th Jan 2007.
metal upper and lower.

I was once on TV, burning old bank notes on Jim'll Fix It.

And despite my username, I don't have ginger hair!

I am 47 and female. I reside on a horse farm outside Minneapolis. I'm hoping to have the best bite on the property within 2 years. Other than my husband, it shouldn't be a problem.

2nd time around which includes mandibular advancement.

Getting long in the tooth,

Andi

Hi! I'm a 38 year-old female in the Seattle, WA area (Redmond). This is my first time in braces. I got them on October 24, 2006, had one bottom tooth extracted in November 2006, and just learned at my last adjustment that they may come off as soon as January 2008 (3 months early)! Yea! Being good with the rubberbands/elastics makes a BIG difference.
