I got my braces april 1 of last year, and so far there has been a huge change already on my teeth.
my lower teeth are almost done, but i've got a fairly big overbite. so right now i've got gaps on both sides of my two front teeth. [therefore, having a company id photo shoot yesterday was a huge challenge....
]my biggest worry is whether my bite would ever line up, but browsing through all your posts is really of big help to me.
strangely, i've never really had much trouble with having my braces on. never needed to change my diet because i can only eat soft foods and such. i pretty much eat the same things i did when i didn't have my braces. hmm.... maybe it's because i've got a fairly high threshhold for pain...
my orthodontist tells me that i've got about a year to go, so looks like i'll be hanging out with you guys for a while. lucky for me that this board seems full of a nice bunch of metal-mouthed people.
