I'm new to the forum and just wanted to say a quick hi! I got my braces on last Wednesday an the first two days were an absolute pain in the behind. It's been tough getting use to not eating things I would normally eat. In fact lastnight I was eating an oatmeal cookie ( BIG MISTAKE) I have Damon braces and the wire popped out of the bracket. I started freaking out. Thankfully I was able to pop it back in the bracket. Hopefully it didn't mess with anything.
Anyway I'm not exactly sure how long I'm going to have the braces on. I'm going to an orthodontic school and they said it could take up to two years. I'm a case study for the Damon braces. And I've been reading about Damon braces and that it can reduce the amount of time in braces by up to 25% so let's hope that's accurate and I'm out of these jokers in a year and a half at the latest. I will try and post a pic when I get a chance......
