Teigyr, I really appreciate your point of view and attitude. Granted, I don't think I'll know how I'll react to them until they're on, but I'm going to do my best to stay positive. I feel like I already have a bit of a stigma in a far less than perfect smile, so I have faith that it will be well worth it in the long run. My sense of self worth is based, at least on part, in taking good care of myself emotionally and physically. This is part of that and, from that standpoint, makes me feel good.
