Finally I have braces

#1 Post by tessy1970 »

I am so happy to finally have a chance at a nice smile. I have insurance from work and it has afforded me this opportunity, which I am grateful for. I have a 12mm overbite that has prevented me from having my picture taken. I have been so self conscious for so many years. I feel better already and I am happy to be part of a group that is going through the same thing I am. Thank you everyone :)
