Hi Aimee:
Well, I think that we feel that it changes our appearance more than it does at first. After a while, I would forget and others would notice. You will be so glad that you have gotten the process started. It will be somewhat painful at first, but you will be used to it very quickly. Hang in there, knowing that who cares how you look in braces, but how you'll look when you are done....
Take care- Steph

because I don't know what to expect, but I am excited at the same time
because I will have straight teeth in about 2 years. I guess I am
alittle worried on how I will look in the braces. Does it change your
appearance at all?
