I'll be either 19 or 20, depending on when they actually end up being taken off.

53 if all goes according to plan. Boy I really feel old. But I really don't care. This is a wonderful thing that I have done for myself.

I will be 40 years old! As we get farther into treatment I am going to ask if it is possible to have them off before my 40th Birthday. They are scheduled to come off in June/July of 2009, but b-day is end of March.

But if not, I will be thrilled to have a beautiful smile in whatever time it has to happen! They have been on a month, and treatment time was 22 months.

I think I will do that, Meryaten. That is the perfect excuse to delay turning 40 :lol:

I got them when I was 21 a month before I turned 22 so best case scenario 23 1/2 if it takes the whole 2 years then a month before I turn 24, if it goes over treatment time I'll be 24!!! I can't wait, my teeth look better every day!! :lol:

I'm getting my invisalign around Canadian Thanksgiving (October 8th) while I'm 29.5. :) Could take 2-3 years, so probably I will be 32. Not too bad!

26, assuming surgery and everything goes according to schedule, which it should unless I personally decide to push it back or something.

The estimated time for treatment is 18 months, so I'll be 27.
