“Newbie, but Still Unsure”

I've been waiting a very long time to get braces. In my line a work I kept being denied due to my location. I finally got to a point where I could take the time and fix my teeth and I'm hoping it won't affect everything else in my life. My teeth are actually in very good shape. I have spaces in between basically all my front teeth top and bottom but hey they are heathly. I am currently on 1 out of 20 trays and my main concern is my speech. My lisp is terrible and people do notice. They say it goes away but I am currently on day 4 and still waiting. I don't find them to terribly uncomfortable, but I definately notice that I wear them. I hope that over time my speech improves and I get used to them. Since I've been waiting all this time to fix my teeth I'm hoping now that I made the right choice.

Well now I am tray 5 out of 20. It's not moving as fast as I would like but hey. I think maybe my patience is running out. But it actually did get better or I just got used to them. My teeth feel really funny when I don't have them in. But I believe it's worth it.
