Posting so that I can keep my registration active. I will be getting braces in mid November, and surgery a year later (or so), and want to learn as much as I can.

Welcome! I’ve been stalking this website ever since I decided to get braced and finally made an account so be able to ask questions. There is so much helpful info on here - definitely makes the process less nerve wracking :)

Good luck on your braces journey!

I'm new here also! I haven't been braced yet (I'm about a month away), but have learned so much about the experience through the forum. I almost feel like I semi-know what to expect. Best of luck on your journey!

Been here about two years. Love the forum as you get honest answers to all your questions and you quickly learn that you are not alone in this.
