Very nice, bracesafter40! Look how good your teeth are looking, too!

Thank you puppy smiles.
I missed one set of ligs and will post those soon, but here is what my Asst. suggested after my 3 Feb. visit.

Thank you againbrace for bumping this! It makes me sort of excited. I was kind of set into sticking with two colors the entire time..but this post makes me want to do orange/black for Halloween...and red/green for Christmas. lol I don't even have them on yet so I should stop planning..

So I haven't made my entire way through but I think this gadget is fun to use. (This is not my orthodontist, I just found it online).

Scroll down to the bottom and it is this gadget you can use to try out colors! My apologies if something like this has already been posted but I have only made it in 10 or so pages.

I've had baby pink, baby blue, yellow and green.
So far loved every colour.
Will post pictures later.

I asked my co-workers if they thought pink ligs would be cute, and they were all horrified that I would even suggest getting colors. They were all even very surprised that I chose metal brackets instead of ceramic.

I still might go for the pinks because I still think they would be cute!

Ive barely had mine on ten days. I have the clear up top and silver on the bottom. I have no idea what the other objects are but from reading this borad I think there called springs or coils. I really liked the easter looking colors some pages back!

The pink my ortho has doesn't stain and I've stuck with them over the last few visits. They look rather fluorescent on their own but with my metal ligs you can't really tell. They're just pink. Unless you have alternate colours (which tend to catch the eye more), no one really notices your lig colours once they know you have braces.

My co-workers are still appalled that a few of us have braces, and that I went so far as to get metals (others have ceramics) "why mess with nature?" "why endure the pain?" and miscellaneous such crap I've learned to tune out from the few particularly nasty ones who enjoy demoralizing others.

Go for what makes you happy

I got light pink ligatures, and I love them

Sorry, if this was here already, but I'm bit lazy reading all 67 pages

Check this site out = Brace Color Selector!
I love it!
You can try any color you like, and check how it would look like

Bracesafter40, your teeth look great! Will the braces be coming off soon?
I like the aqua ligs. Black looks good, too.

Thank you.
naw, I have at least another year. I have to move three lower teeth forward and two on the top. How about yourself?
