Sorry to sound unwelcoming, but could you please resize them? They are too big and mess up the board.

Thanks.

They look good! Don't know what type you have, they look like traditional metal brackets as they use ligs on the 4 corners to hold the wire on. May be some particular brand, but I don't recognize anything distinguishing them one from another.

The dark ligs make your teeth look quite white. :thumbsup:

Best wishes to you in your treatment.

Much better :lol: they were so big I couldn't get them all on my screen :D I agree with Jennie your teeth look nice and white. I don't know what kind of brackets they are, though. They look similar to mine, but I don't think mine are any "special" brand.

How long do you think you will have them on?
