Good for you, Nina, for taking this step and having the work done if that is what you want! It is merely a part of self-care and there should be no age limit on self-care. That’s just silly! I wish you lots of success with this process. I am sure you will be thrilled with the results!

Way to go Nina. My first toddler dived on me in bed and practically knocked one of my front teeth out!

Hi, Nina – I should be getting braces for one tooth that is out of line near the front, but the bill instills the fear. Lol! So thanks for the encouragement. I wish you the best. To me, you seem mighty brave to go through all that dental work. 😀 – Angie, http://www.yourtrueselfblog.com
