Hello everyone,
I am 19 and living in PA and I just got braces to fix my overbite. They were actually my choice and although I was a bit worried about getting them they arent too bad.
I only need them on my top teeth and my treatment time is 6-8 months (not bad really).
I started a blog to post my progress so stop by and check it out:
http://beerprincess.blogspot.com/ (forgive the name, it's something my friends call me).
As I said it's not so bad and I kind of wish I had done it sooner.
So hello everyone!
19 and new to the club

Thank you. You are right I did get off easy.linda21 wrote:Hey there Sam!
Lucky you to only require your upper arch to be braced and for such a light sentence![]()
If I can get a digital camera I will try to take a picture. Sadly, I don't have one right now.linda21 wrote:Would be interesting to see the tooth-coloured brackets your ortho uses.
I think they are made of the same material and are just tinted to make them hard to see. The brackets have a noticeable tint, they arent totally translucent.linda21 wrote:Are they the ceramic that a number of people on the board are braced in?
Thank you. I am going to keep my blog up to date as far as my progress.linda21 wrote:Good luck in correcting your overbite and here's too heaps of progress!
