Well I'm 36 and finally got my braces yesterday, after years of being to afraid of getting my wisdom teeth pulled. I got my wisdom teeth (all 4) pulled out right before Christmas, yes what a present to myself huh?

Yesterday was finally the day. I was feeling fine and thought "This is not a big deal" until I tried to eat dinner last night.... Well needless to say, I couldn't. I have built up parts (not sure what they are called) on my two eye teeth, so I won't bit off my brackets, so I can't feel what I am chewing.

The aching is not bad today, it does seem like I am getting used to them. I actually ate mac n cheese today... woo hoo!

I will keep you all posted on my progress. I hear that lots of people are interested in the 6 month thing. I am so glad that I found this site...

Thanks guys

    Fantastic you're going to keep a blog, as there are many people who still don't know about the 'six month' braces treatment!

    Lauralea, the six month braces is a type of treatment that focuses on 'the look' of the front teeth, rather than working with the bite. It's a great treatment for people who don't have any or many bite issues and mostly want the alignment of their front teeth sorted.

    Here's a great web site to check out about this type of treatment.
