Braces

Recommended Posts

I wore those evil little things for a couple of years...from when I was 9 to when I was 11, I think.

Every single time I went to the orthodontist, without fail, I'd get the "Good thing you're doing it now because in a few years when you're 16 or 17 you want boys to notice your beautiful bright smile"

:rotfl:

I even have a ruler that says that.

But anyway....do you have braces, or did you have them? :ph34r:

whoa. and I thought 2 times was bad.

Braces weren't really that bad, you got used to them...but when they tightened them....:ph34r:. Ouch. All I could eat was apple sauce :rolleyes:

I had braces for 2 and a half years I believe... It wasn't too bad... I always took some tylenol before going to get them tightened so I was okay... I have a permenant retainer on the bottom now... It bugs me...

I had them for three and a half years, from 7th to 11th grade, too. It wasn't fun, but it was worth it. But I've been having orthodontic work done since I was about 7. :(

I've had that twice. u_u Once to help my teeth come in right, and the second time was to straigghten them. It takes people a while to tell that I have braces, though. XD;; It seems like everyone that wears them always have their mouths open to display them. o.o I don't know why that is. They're not trying to show them off, but it just always seems like they're like that. XD;;;

I had braces, for 2 years and a bit, it wasn't bad... but little did I know braces were only half the battle! Retainers are horrible because you don't have them strapped in so I take them off always, I only wear them at night. And the future may hold bad teeth for me :( .
