Can't wait to get this journey going full speed ahead.

Here are some pics of my teeth right now. I used a cell phone so the qulaity is not that great. I will get a real camera in the future.

Enjoy your journey through the braceface world. It may be difficult at times, but you can do it.

Remember your salt water rinses and wax.

Congrats on getting started. :jump:

Good Luck for Wednesday Rex.

I think you will be amazed how quickly you will notice the progress. As bracedagain said, make sure you take photos to track your progress. It makes all the hardwork so worthwhile when you can see the difference.

I look forward to following your journey too.

If I was a girl I would sure be an ugly one. Hopefully after the braces I can be a cuter guy.

Good luck on Wednesday Rex! Remember if you end up feeling the "aaaa! What have I done???" feeling, it too shall pass. Just keep in mind all of Karen's advice - all will go fine!

BTW, you have some beautifully white teeth! (Can you hear my envy talking?) :D

You're going to enjoy having the braces on. I do! I have/had several gaps like you do, and some have closed and other teeth are straightening out and it's really cool to watch it happen.

Good luck!

AGH! What did I get myself into. He put the metal brackets on today. I have to come back on friday for the wires. How long before I get use to this?

I think I am gonna go to social hybernation for the next 2 years.

Any good words guy and gals?
