Metal Mouth Message Board

When I had braces back some 20 odd years ago I never thought I would have them again...oh,Hi, they call me Skates other places and now I have settled in here.

Just got braces a little over a month ago. Four days ago I got fitted with a quad helix and well...I came here looking for advice and I found all of you. HI!

I look forward to getting to know all of you and according to my ortho-16 months to go.

Skates

Skates to the Archwired.com community!! You certainly will get great advice here! If you want you can document your orthodontic journey in the Braces Diary Forum!

Thanks ilovemacs...I might. I'm currently doing the visiting the parents thing for Christmas...which stinks when you're looking for certain ortho things that you can only find at home....

Cut my tongue on the dang helix...Orajel is my friend!

Also, as a moderator on other boards, I read about what happened with one of your longtime members. That stinks, but the important thing is that it was taken care of. You can't be too careful on the net. Sad but true.

Nice to meet you!

Skates
