I am 35 and just got braces on last Friday after SARPE surgery on October 20, 2015. Fingers crossed that I won't need them for longer than a year or two!

I'm 37 and just got mine yesterday morning.
I have so many questions and concerns already :-\ I think most of them are irrational fears, so I'm hoping they subside soon.

I'm 25, almost 26, and will get them in a couple of weeks. I couldn't get them before because I need to pay for it all out of pocket.
