I've had braces on for 2 years + now. It took longer for me because I postponed by teeth extractions by a year because I wanted to see how my teeth would look without extractions. But evidently, after that 1 year, it was clear I had to go for extractions. One problem I was very, veryyyy afraid of is getting a sunken face.

But I still went ahead anyway, cuz like, literally my protrusion problem still there without extractions. Its been about 10 months since my extractions and I'm pretty happy so far with the changes. I did film my braces journey and I am doing a series of braces video as a journal for myself to look back on in the future and also to help out people who are on their braces journey.

I just share my links to the videos here for general info. You can watch if you want lah hah.
