I haven't watched it also, but I know that it's about trading drugs, and something gone really wrong with it. It's also got a lot to do with fate, luck, and chance related stuff. Hmm, seems quite complicated, I understand why you don't understand Pwnd.

two years? dang...i had mine on for a year - a year and a half.

blizzard, you're in for a lot of fun...food gets stuck in your braces, and you don't know it's there, they cut your mouth, and you can get poked also if they don't clip the wire a lot. have fun

....oh yeah, and have you're done, you get a retainer (which gives you a lisp). do you think it's worth getting braces?

i watched the good, the bad, and the ugly the other day...that is about the only old movie i've seen recently.

I'm so happy my braces are off. I had them for around a year and 9 months, which was a little longer than predicted. I got the retainer on but I had a palette expander before. What that does is it fixes to the roof of your mouth and you take a key and turn it every so often (once or twice a day) and it widens the roof of your mouth. One VERY pleasant side effect is you get a giant gap in your teeth that doesn't go away until the bone in the roof of your mouth regrows. Compared to that, a retainer is nothing. The lisp is hardly noticeable (I think it's gone) and it's actually removable. The only thing is I have to wear the retainer for 2-3 years (I'll be in college when they come off, haha).

I also never had my mouth actually get cut open by my braces except for the couple times I got hit in the mouth. The food thing is pretty annoying though, especially if you don't notice for a few hours. One big piece of advice: whenever you're due for an adjustment, stock up on bread, soup, and other things you can swallow because your mouth will hurt for the next couple days and you won't be able to chew anything.

Oh, and have fun with rubberbands

Bracers are free here in Denmark :P but so is anything health related.

i never had bracers, but i think if you need bracers they are a good thing to have.

Nothing from a government is free. Everyone pays taxes, the government skims off what they want and wahtever is left goes for things like braces, roads, etc. If there isn't enough to pay for that stuff the government takes more of your money and the cycle repeats.

azzer20 · Jan 05, 2008, 04:23 PM // 16:23

yeah our taxes are at around 50% but it pays everything, you just said :P

I pwnd U · Jan 05, 2008, 06:49 PM // 18:49

Nope, no headgear. Have fun with that though lol.

Ya my brother has HORRIBLE teeth. They were really bad before his braces were put on.

Denmark has it pretty easy with health related things it sounds.

my uncle went to columbia a few days before x-mas and got his braces for about 500 bucks...

btw I'm having my braces for about 2 years, with the headpiece with no rubberbands nor retainer afterwards xD

So you are saying you are going to look like a fool for a while just so you don't have to have a retainer? That you only wear at night? Ya I would go with the retainer...
