I had braces for five years.. I dealt with the frustration by looking forward to actually being able to chew when I got them off. I used to have a massive overbite and a crossbite. Didn't help the I'm missing two adult teeth on my top jaw. Missing as in never had them. At all.

Which braces do you have???

This is my second time in braces. First was 5th-9th grade. I've been in these since April 2013 and am almost done with them.

Before I can get them off though, I have to have a double jaw surgery and septoplasty to line my jaw up properly. July 23 is my surgery date...

I had a lower mandibular setback when I was 17. (Lower jaw setback) and braces for about 4 years. Let me know if you need any help through it. You'll be eating nothing but liquids for a while if you can eat :/ I was on a 3 month liquid diet without help so all I drank was tomato juice because I was poor and didn't know any better. Which lead to more health problems. But now I know of many many liquid food remedies and goodies :)

Braces have really changed my life quite a bit. Although I hated the feeling of having been punched in the mouth every few weeks during adjustments.

I just had an appointment yesterday talking about all the recovery. I'm looking at 8 weeks liquid. Thankfully I still live at home so I'll be well taken care of. Apparently the part people find the worst is the hip pain from having bone removed for grafting.

I had braces for 1.8 years, and prior to that I had a hard- palette plate that was removable- for 8 months. I got my braces off 1.5 years ago, and have to wear retainers every night for the next 3.5 years :D It's so worth it though! I had very crowded teeth and they were just going to get worse if I didn't get it all done.

I had braces for five years, still have to wear a retainer constantly and can't remove it for more than an hour or so a day. I never had adult lateral incisors, so I have a fake one attached to my retainer on one side, and my canine has been moved to the spot beside my front tooth on the other. I have to have jaw surgery to get an implant in the empty spot, but can'y until I can pay for it.

had braces for two years now. the worst thing is, I got them on my 13th birthday :(
