Definately worth the money and wait. I had them on for about 1.5 years which my ortho previously told me it was going to take 2.5 years. Next step is whitening
I had posted this before but maybe you have added insight. How long were your teeth in practically perfect position before you were debraced? I realize that orthos are fixing very small things up until you are debraced, which is why I say "practically" perfect position. Did you have to wait a period for your teeth to set at all?
Huh? but your teeth look lovely and white already! you lucky thing you (I'm just jealous, ignore me!)
