I just wasn't sure what you meant! Are you having braces on your teeth for dental reasons?

So am I understanding correctly that you got braces on your teeth?  I am getting vislign braces (invisible braces) on my teeth and I would love to have hidden benifit of weight loss but since I can remove them to brush my teeth, I am sure I will remove them to eat and keep it moving, lol

I did the invisalign. Yes, you take them out of your mouth to eat and brush your teeth. Every two weeks, you get a new mouthpiece. I didn't lose a pound!!!! lol But, my teeth look beautiful!!

My daughter had invisalign after her braces were taken off...her orthodontist used them as a retainer.  My daughter hated them.  She said they felt like those fake vampire teeth you wear for Halloween.  But I think they would be better the braces...I used to cut my mouth up all of the time from the braces
