Hey, everyone! :D I'm rachel, 25 years old, finally fed up with ignoring my teeth problems and decided to get braces.
I am getting damon clear braces installed on wednesday next week and I'm so excited!
I've gone through 4 extractions on thursday that I am still recovering from: my two baby canines and 2 wisdom teeth. This has left me with two unsightly gaps on my upper arch.
But I'm feeling positive about the whole situation and can't wait to start my treatment! :GapToothed:

Congrats on starting the process!! I also waited and finally decided to get these braces on 2 months ago, and I am already very used to them. During these 2 months they are already almost perfect, the results are fast...I'm sure yours will be faster since you are getting damon braces which move almost twice as fast as regular clear ones.

Stay positive and don't get discouraged...the discomfort and pain will lessen with time and the results are very worth it!!

best of luck!
