Thanks Fyrelight!

I can't believe I fought my parents on the subject of getting braces when I was a kid. I don't know why, but I just didn't want them, eventhough I hated my teeth. Now I'm completely in love with my braces and the only part I'm upset about is that my parents won't pay for them!

Thanks Dodger!

I think it's pretty quick progress too....now only to convince my ortho and knock a few months off of that 24-30 month treatment estimate!

Thanks...my teeth are looking even more sexy now that I'm at six months in red powerchains! :wink:

Those pics are in my ortho journal. If you're interested, it's my www link.

I hope your braces experience is a good and rewarding one! :D

That's some awesome progress for only a few months! I bet you're really happy! My progress has been pretty dramatic too. I think because they were so cramped and crooked anything was an improvement...lol. I've had mine 7 months now and people are really shocked to see how they've come along. I'm in a wedding on Saturday, and my brother will be there... I haven't seen him since before my braces, so he is in for a huge surprise...lol. Way to go! :D

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Also good luck at that wedding, strugglebuggy! Show your brother your awesome new smile! I know he'll be excited, as my sister and I share an apartment and see each other all of the time, but she still stops every few weeks and stares at me and goes, "Wow!" :D
