One Year in braces and probably less than a year to go !!!!!!

I have not posted in awhile cause my braces are getting VERY VERY boring. I barely have any overbite maybe 1mm compared to 10mm a year ago when I started this journey.

I went in for my 9th adjustment yesterday and asked the question....... SOOOOOOOOOOOO it's been a year, do I have another year and a half??? And he kinda thinks and hesitates and says OH NO, a year tops and maybe if I'm really ...

Hi guys

Hope everyone is doing good. I HATE my braces lately I am having a few weeks of feeling sorry for myself and wishing the next 2 years will fly by. I know I was actually okay with them last blog but people keep commenting on how they make my lips stick out and how funny it is and how uncomfortable my mouth looks. People are MEAN!!!! I know they think it's funny but can't they lie about it now and then in 2 years tell me what a loser I looked like.

SO today ...

Hi everyone

My name is Elle. I am 32 getting braced for the 2nd time December 16th, 2010.

Ceramic uppers, metal lowers, will have forsus springs for a lot of treatment to correct severe overbite.

History
- I was a thumbsucker until I was around 10 and then I got a retainer for awhile to correct overbite (I don't recall how well that worked)
- Had braces for up to 2 years, removed when I was 13. I think I wore my retainers until around 20ish ...
