    Getting braces on Monday!

    Hi everyone!

    I am new to the site, but have enjoyed reading a lot of the posts and learning about everyone experiences with braces. I get my braces put on Monday the 30th of August. Ceramic on top, then I will get my bottom (metal) in a few months. Please check out my blog and stay tuned for what is to come.

    I also posted in your blog.

    Good luck to you on Monday! I'm so excited for you. Don't be at all nervous - getting the braces doesn't hurt a bit. I think the worst part, for me, was the nasty-tasting etching solution they put on your teeth for a minute. It tastes like sour citrus. Actually, I didn't taste it until they started rinsing it out. Blech! But everything else was a piece of cake.

    You won't regret getting the ceramics. I just changed my top ones from metal to ceramic (for purely vanity reasons), and I love them to death. Are you going to get colored ligatures, or are your braces going to be self-ligating?

    I look forward to seeing pics and reading about your journey!

    I hope everything goes well. Nothing hurts until afterwards. If you're scared of dentists like I am, you're in for a wild ride.

    With a positive attitude and a great ortho, your treatment should be great!

    All the best and I look forward to following your blog!
