I'm a happy brace face!!!

#1 Post by Rachel B »

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to write a quick positive happy post.
I've had my braces for nearly 8 months now and I am SO glad I got them. My teeth look a million times better - nice and level and straight even though I've still got gaps and a TAD.
The braces don't bother me at all. Even my adjustments don't seem too bad.
I teach 34 eight year olds every day and having braces has no effect on this either.
My advice would be, if you really hate your teeth, like I did, just go for it.

Rach :lol: :lol:

PS discovered I could eat thai green curry without any staining today so I can finally get a curry fix too!!!!

I agree, too! I've had my braces for 4 months and they are worth every penny. I am less self-conscious about my braces than I was about my crooked teeth.

Coming from a former teacher, I'd have to say that your teaching 34 eight year olds would be much tougher than a little soreness and all that comes with being a metal mouth :) Are all 34 in the same class? My hat goes off to you!
Braced (upper and lower): 10/29/08
Debraced: 3/17/10
Now sportin' a permanent bottom retainer
Alternate clear retainers every 12 hours
