I still need braces and I'm a grandmother!
Reminds me of a story......When I was in junior high school, my mom asked me if I wanted braces. She took me to the orthodonist to see what should be done.....He said I had to have four teeth pulled first, then the braces, which scared me. Apparently, my mouth is very small, and my teeth were very crowded, that's why I had to have teeth pulled.
Now here's the funny (gross) part....The dentist had TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE breath! I couldn't imagine going to see him for years, and having to smell his bad breath. It was like he swallowed a dead fish!
Anyhow, mom let me decide, and I of course, said NO WAY!
Now, here I am an older lady, and I've always had these crooked teeth....really wishing I had nice straight teeth......
So kids, get those braces! A beautiful smile is really wonderful to have!
