Metal Mouth Message Board

Hey I plan on getting my braces in a week or two and just wanted to say what's up to everyone on the forum

I just got braces about a month ago (six month smiles) so helloooo :)

I'm also new to this site, considering having braces in the next 2 to 3 weeks and hoping to find some good stories that push me into taking the plunge :)

I'm also thinking of getting braces in around 2 weeks

Braces going on January 2nd... Glad to see other "newbies" starting the journey.... and look forward to sharing our stories/supporting each other along the way..... BTW, anyone else out there doing braces(again) in your 40s or 50s...?

I am 51 and in braces for the first time. Been in them about 2 weeks.

Hi

I'm 37 & got my traditional braces on 17th dec, ortho appt 21st jan.

not bothered me too much!

Good luck x

Good luck

Good luck to everyone who will be getting them soon! I am 39 and 6 months into my treatment. While I still dont like them, I dont regret getting them. I was embarrassed of my teeth anyway so I may as well be embarrassed while getting them fixed. (my insecurity, most people arent embarrassed of braced)

Newbie here too! I'm getting braced on Tuesday. I love reading all these posts about what to expect, how it felt, the braces diet, etc... I'm both nervous and excited at the same time :)

Congrats and good luck! I am a newbie also. Had my spacers put in on Jan 2nd and braces go on Jan 13th! Here's to beauty smiles in our futures!

Wow so many of us getting braces around the same time, so exciting to be going through it with others and so good to have experienced people help out with questions. Love this site (thanks admin)

Mine will be on next fri.

Lcfcsi there are great stories and pics that really encouraged me to go ahead.

Hi all, I'm Clare, I'm 30 and based in the UK. Unless I wimp out in the next few days then Im getting Six Month Smiles braces on 20th February. I'm really scared about it! But this forum is helping a lot. Good to know there are so many of us in the same boat. Good luck to everyone.

I am 42 and I just recently got my ceramics on top! Glad to know someone my age is getting them!
