{newbie} Getting 6 month smile braces

[mummabraces]

Hi E/O!

I'm new have been stalking for a few days reading and reading. i am getting my 6 months smile braces next week. I'm 34 and have 3 very small children I'm very excited! Just wondering if anyone else if on the same plan? or has been.

I'm not familiar with this system. Is it aligners or brackets? Do they guarantee 6 months?

oops...Never mind...I just looked it up but I can't seem to find a delete option for my post.

Looks like a good system. If there was someone around here that offered it, it is probably what I'd be using. I'm hoping invisalign will be less visible even though it will take a much longer period of time.

Good luck with treatment!

I have just started on this treatment plan. 2 weeks in and on to my second aligner. I must say, I am really impressed with the speed at which the teeth are moving. Slightly worried infact. Hope there are no cons with the teeth moving quickly.

lilone, yes it does look good I think they can average from 4-9 months with 6 being the average.

Sounds good Chris!

I'm getting them today *yikes!!!*

They're on!
feel fine, only thing bothering me is the back bracket catching on the inside cheek!
no pain getting them on or now, bit of pressure etc, feel slightly self-concious!

can't post a picture it would appear though!

You need to make seven posts before being able to post a picture. You'll know it when your name is no longer orange.

Congrats of getting them. Hope you remain comfortable!
