21 is not that young at all O_O im 18, and i got braces just this year because i have a class three underbite, and that is like 6-8mm length of hole in my front tooth, where my underbite jaw is sticking out like crazy and i get bite O_O (jaw issue tho, unlike urs) i know that was totally irrelavent to your issue, but people have it worse, so dont feel bad xD imma have to get a surgery in.. about 7 months after the braces set my teeth straight, where they'll cut the jaw, which i heard is like 100x worse then wisdom tooth extraction (haha, figures) then ill lose feeling for an unknown amount of time.. okay this is totally irrelevant, but just to make u feel better HAHA, 21 itsnt that bad, braces are cool after the tightening part stops hurting good luck! if u do go thru w/ the braces again, its better sooner then later rite?
i remember that i was very close to having to saw my jaw... lol but lukily enuff it wans' tneeded heheheeh but atleast the end result is pretty! =)
