I got my braces a couple months ago at the age of 34. Flossing has been a challenge.

I was 14 or 15 when I had my first round. Worn for 2 years.

Recently been diagnosed with Severe osteoarthritis with Condylar Resorption, so I will be looking into getting braces again possibly. I am 31.

I got mine about 7 weeks ago at age 33. I've been pontificating and debating about it for the past few years, I wish I'd done it then because I'd be finished by now! :)

I get mine a week tomorrow, 6th october. And I am 31. Thought about it on and off for the last few years but I feel now is the right time to do it.

I got my braces at 16, under the belief that my treatment (including surgery to fix an underbite) would take 18 months to 2 years. I'm now 21, and almost 5 1/2 years later I'm getting them off in a month! Woo!

I was 38 having turned down the opportunity 20 years earlier, I'm glad I did as I'm sure technology has moved on since then but it's been no fun turning 40 with braces on!
