I wore braces for 3.5 years, I had modern braces. But I also had to wear a headgear and tongue crib. I would have preferred full bands.

I would want all the metal I could get! Full bands, expander, tongue crib, combination headgear. All that would feel great and attract a lot of attention.

Lucky you! that must have been a fun experience.  Did you have some photos up a while ago, under the same name? I remember seeing some on image shack or something.  They were awesome!

napacaster. That sounds perfect to me. Full bands and bulky appliances would be a dream.

I have had both. Modern is more comfortable but the look of the old is more interesting.

Definately old-skool forsure. It would be fun and interesting to be put into full bands and heavier bulky appliances with leather strapped headgear and the possibility of getting headgear wired in...

Modern for me (but still complex!)

Brackets (but the thicker ones), a facebow with modern cervical and possible high pull straps. Maybe a tongue crib, a lip bumper and some other small appliances.

Prefer the modern look. i like the elegance of the non-bulky braces, has some attractiveness to it.
