[quote=Anonymous]People 100% notice. I'm an Eastern European immigrant, and when I arrived here in 1999, my teeth had major crowding. It immediately branded me as an immigrant from a lower income country, and limited my career and romantic options. America expects dental perfection. You may not like it, but it is in fact the standard here, and if you deviate from that standard, you stand out. It's not true that people are tolerant or understanding of your dental flaws. They are not and they notice. I had my teeth fixed as soon as I could afford to. It wasn't "soon", and it took 3+ years because of my age and severity of the problem. It feels great not to feel people looking at your teeth. My children all had braces early on because I don't want them to even remotely go through what I did. [/quote]
