Did/Do you have braces?

[dogzr#1]

I am wearing them now. I get them off in a couple months. My teeth were horrible before, now they look really good. I can't wait until they are off.

Oh, and all of those who have them now, or just got them off?

Wear Your Retainers

I know two girls who had them around when I did that weren't great about wearing their retainers, and had to redo the whole braces experience as adults. You think it's embarassing now, try giving a business presenation when your mouth is sore from getting a wire tightened and you have a mouthful of braces!

My friend has braces on for two years, never wore her retainer and a year later she had to get it back on.. but longer then 2 years.

I never had braces on my teeth, my teeth are perfectly straight. I've never even needed my wisdom teeth pulled. I've never had a cavity either.

My back more than made up for my teeth though. I've had back problems since 4th grade and even had to wear a back brace for 31/2 years during middle school and high school.

I had them! Had to wear them for about two years or so. I don't miss them a bit, but I sure am glad that I had them when I did, my teeth were horrible!

I got them off freshmen year of highschool in the fall, so almost 2 years ago. I had them for about 2.5 years. I'm supposed to be wearing my retainer, I had to pay for a new one because the old one didn't fit because I never wore it. I wear my retainer at night only because I know If if did days I'd loose it.
