Got mine 2 months ago and still hate them! I feel them all the time and can't smile properly or talk properly.

Please tell me it gets better?? Anyone had them and think it was worth it?

How long did it take you to get used to them (not sure I'm ever going to!!)

Def.. My front 2 teeth were a bit crossed. Big overbite.. Chose not to have teeth out which would have given better results but top lip drops back and like fuller lips! Still very happy!

I have had a MAD mouth guard to help with snoring. The dentist said to me today that I am only his second patient actually able to cope with one it is so big. I am actually quite proud of myself as it had taken so much effort. You will be fine eventually! If I can you can!!
