That's really neat! I don't even have my braces on yet (still in my expander), but my daughter is planning out my year with different colors for all the holidays holidays. She'll have me looking like one freaky mommy.
Hi Chicklets, I'm 47 and I also have the expander. It's finally to the point where it doesn't really bother me much anymore except food getting under it and the lisp.lol...I get my top braces Feb. 13 and looking forward to it, also trying to figure out what color I might get. My 21 yr. old daughter doesn't think I should go for color,,but I think I do, so we'll see.
