I always jump on the forum every now and then . But this is me with 13 months of my braces. Ceramic top , metals bottoms. My parents couldn't afford full on braces when i was younger , i did have a plate with a little spring on it that was designed to push that really inner top tooth out , it worked but of course as soon as i took it out it went right on back .
My teeth always bothered me , especially as i look after them, have all my teeth with no fillings , so at 30 years old , married with 2 kids i decided to do it.
Saw my ortho last week and he said i should only have a couple more visits , so if i get them off before xmas i'll be stoked. As i thought i'd have them for the full 2 years .
There not perfect but from what i started off with i'm very happy, and can't wait to get them off.
