Re: Invisalign attachments? Overall experience?
I know someone with attachments on the center of their front teeth and she says people always look at her funny trying to determine if she has braces or not...if an orthodontist could say if visible attachments were needed, I would probably end up going with metal so I could dip.

Re: Anyone here Dip Snuff

Re: Anyone here Dip Snuff
My dentist knows I dip, being a lady I am embarrassed I dip and would rather an orthodontist not know. My dentist said my gums are fine. If I wore each Invisalign tray 3

Hey Shea, welcome as well!
Maybe we could tell more if you were able to post photos of just your teeth and bite (not entire face)

Re: Straighten 2nd molars
Mine are straight, but I have a wisdom tooth growing in so I hope that doesn't mess mine up.

Hello, I am Julia, 27 and about to get braces or invisalign for the first time. I live in the midwest, and enjoy being outdoors but still like to go to the mall. I am shocked and happy to have found an entire forum dedicated to adults with braces! Glad to interact with all of you here.
