Disclaimer: I wanted to put this in the "personal" category, but I couldn't find it.
A year ago & a half, I got braces, because I found out that my teeth were crooked. But that's not where the problem started. That's where it began. My gums were all swollen, too. So, before I got the braces put on, my had a majority of my gums surgically decreased. However, once the braces were put into place, the gums grew back into previous size, like nothing happened (we think my gums are allergic to metal). However, next month (I believe it'll be June), they'll be removed, so for a while, I'll be wearing retainers instead during that month (IDK for how long, though). Wish me luck!
