That's a nice way of thinking about it! I certainly don't feel old, or how I used to imagine it might feel like to reach "middle age"!

34/m/usa here

I'm a former wearer, admirer now.  Would love to chat.  I'm interested in wearing again.  Love metal, appliances, and headgear

Been a minute but my wearing status has changed.  Got braces about a year ago!

@ksmooth What prompted you to get braces again? What is your treatment and how is it going?

Interesting story (aren't they all?)

I was having some jaw pain and tooth pain in one of my top left premolars.  I actually thought I'd cracked the tooth so I told my regular dentist and he told me that it was because my bite was off and all the bite pressure was hitting that tooth.  He referred me to an ortho.

Saw the ortho thinking and he said that basically the whole top left side of my teeth were a half a tooth too forward.  Invisalign wasn't an option to correct the bite. They needed to extract the premolar to make room and pull everything back.  2 year of braces was the recommended treatment.

I was worried about the perception of braces but deep down I wanted them so I said f it.  It was a great decision.

It's been great.  Nothing crazy but I'll never forget the excitement of getting them on.  It was one of the best experiences I've had.
