I am 29 years old and jsut not getting my bracketing and exposure surgery done for an impacted canine.
Right now I have a partial with a fake tooth on it that looks incredibly good/real. I get compliments often and I love my smile. I always have, but I need the braces/surgery to have my tooth come down.
I am SO nervous about how long this could take and walking around with a giant space in my mouth for who knows how long. I know it is vain, so be it. I have a job where I have to make presentations (and I am supposed to smile a lot), and I have a pretty good social life. Also, I am single and dating. This is just a blow to my self esteem! I just don't want to look funny and feel self concious. I am supposed to go to vegas and my 30th birthday are coming up right after the surgery.
Not sure what I am looking for here, I am just really not looking forward to this.
