I go on Friday to fix some cavities and on May 10 I have the study to start with orthodontics. I'm nervous, what color are you going to wear in your braces? We look forward to seeing photos! I'll do it too! In my previous treatment I was a little embarrassed to smile but in this one I am not going to stop and I am also thinking of wearing bright colored rubber bands although I don't know why to start maybe with various colors that may be striking?

Ahhh so excited for you! That first trip out in public rocking your new look is gonna be wild! I’m also curious to know what colour ligatures you’re thinking of going for? If you can’t decide, you could always setup a poll on the forum and let the members choose for you?   

I'm glad you're enjoying the excitement! Keep us posted!

Still deciding on the color!! kinda leaning toward purple or dark purple though, but wonder if darker color will be more of a shock? Haha. And yes I really look forward to going out right after with them. Getting them on in less than 48 hours now…sooo nervous hahah.

I'm so excited for you!!! It's a good day when one of our kind gets to undergo that magical transformation into a metal mouth! I hope you'll take the time to share your thoughts and feelings of the experience!

I remember before I got my braces I used to press the flap of flesh beneath my top lip vertically between a gap in my top front teeth, and very soon after getting my beloved oral hardware realized I could no longer do this, on account of there not being enough space between those teeth, to say nothing of the massive edgewise arechwire blocking it completely.

This very small microcosm of "cant do this thing because of my braces" THRILLED me even more! There will be a number of little things that are different, will feel different, and things you CANT do because of your braces. EMBRACE those! Relish in them!

All the best!

Hahah yeah I keep thinking about the things that will change!! Like needing to check my teeth more to make sure nothings stuck in them (maybe will keep a little mirror on hand and mini brush and floss?) And then needing to clean them specially (I think I’ll enjoy taking care of them actually, unlike with Invisalign I hated trying to clean those trays that got gross…but since the braces will be part of me I want them to look the best). I also definitely will be feeling them with my tongue a lot or playing with them lol, it’ll probably be my new fidget thing.

It doesn’t feel real that I’ll have braces in less than 48 hours now. Tomorrow is the last day of not having braces and then the next morning they go on. No backing out now!

I also haven’t told anyone im getting them which is kinda fun lol. I guess I’ll mention it casually to friends or just show up with them haha. We’ll see how I feel!

What a great news! I did it a few years ago and the pleasure was really intense. especially at the start. Like it was said before, enjoy each second of the first times.

How old are you and what is your occupation ?
