I was very pretty before, but had terrible teeth. The braces with extractions destroyed my face. I was 15 when I got them and the orthodontist neglected to tell me of the huge changes that would happen to my face. Is there any solution to solve this or at least to diminish the dished- in look that isn't incredibly expensive or surgery. I am 17 now and my parents won't listen to me on this subject... Please help. My self esteem has been destroyed.
