The opinion of the patients

After my dentist informed me that if I do not correct my bite, then by the age of 35 I can remain without teeth, I agreed to install braces. I have worn them for 2 years. At the end of this time in the mirror, I really saw the perfect smile.

But after a while I began to notice that there are gaps between the teeth. As a result, it turned out that the doctor simply forgot to write me a cap. Now I dress them every night, the situation is gradually corrected.
