Braces Are On! Let the countdown begin...

I just got back with my new braces! 

A few things about the experience:

1) No pain; Slight discomfort.  The overall process from cleaning to wire placement was pretty quick and easy.  The cleaning was fine.  The impressions were my favorite part.  I had the opportunity to pick my flavors.  I chose chocolate and strawberry.  It was like biting into a piece of saltwater taffy!  It only lasted a minute thought :(.  The only discomfort was the device used to hold my tongue in place when they put on the brackets.  It would put a little pressure on the soft tissue under my tongue.  It only lasted for 20 minutes or so.  It wasn't bad.
