I'm 13 years in. I hated having braces and was so eager to get them off and then they're like "surprise! You've gotta do extra work every day for the rest of your life now or all that expensive dental work you paid for goes out the window!!" I actually need it though. My front teeth will go bow-legged within a week if i dont. One time a dog chewed my first one up and the original ortho wouldn't make me a new one because they just trash your models after yours is made. Cost $300 to have one made again.
This is a roundabout way of saying I feel your dread, comrade
