Good story. There seem to be a lot more adults in the US with braces than in Europe.

I just got back from a city in South America which had a lot of people with braces. The biggest group that I can think that we had was together was 4, but certainly when going out there would be many dozens in a given restaurant or disco or anywhere. Saw all sorts of different people with full metal braces including maintenance guys painting the walls, old maids mopping the floors, spike haired punk hipsters, corporate secretaries, police officers with full military regalia & machine guns, businessmen in fancy suits, everybody & anybody .. Age 20's up to 50's.

And only saw one person with ceramic wanna-be braces everything else pure iron.
Not that many interesting lig colors though. Mainly pink on ladies & gray on guys. (boring)

Nice story. Don't think mine ever went that big of a group of people in braces. Largest group was just 3.
