I do know exactly how excited you feel! I took tons of pictures. Not many people understand "what's the big deal" it's just braces etc...
But living with my teeth for 30+ years and finally getting the chance for that dream smile! And when I say dream smile that is exactly what I mean. I imagine you've had those dreams that you suddenly wake with that dream smile. Now I don't dream anymore ,it's actually coming true.
Congrats on getting braced & no regrets! :-)o :-)o

I have had the dreams, but it is of my teeth falling out from the braces :cry: I don't think I will get the dream smile unless it is with dentures :cry:

Glad to hear someone has had nice results :D

Awesome Stace... can't wait to see how this goes for you! In about six or eight months you're gonna see some amazing changes. Welcome to the club of sore teeth for the next few days! Mine are not really sore now at two weeks, just very loose feeling.

You've finally done it, stace. Good on you.

Nice that your ortho has left your lowers out of the equation for a few weeks. This will give you some time to get used to your uppers. Or maybe you're used to them already!!
