My tooth alignment wasn’t bad, but after someone jokingly pointed it out once, my teeth became a complex for me. And I started orthodontic treatment in my late 20s, which isn’t exactly young! I didn’t want my face to change dramatically, so I proceeded without extractions, and the total period took 2 years. My teeth became prettier, but my gums got really much worse. I think that’s the biggest side effect I’m experiencing. I can’t eat cold things well, and I can’t eat things like sour fruit anymore. And black triangles formed between my teeth. It’s because my gums receded. Still, aesthetically, my impression looks much cleaner when I smile. Even if I could go back, I think I would still get orthodontic treatment.
