It's a matter of health as well as cosmetics, both of which are important with front teeth.

It's just that I know what my mom will say. She will be all disappointed and upset at me. I also don't know what to do about grinding my teeth, besides getting a new bite splint thingie if I get my teeth fixed- I'll need another one because my teeth's impressions will be different. They are about $30. Grinding my teeth will ruin the crowns, I would think! I think I could probably save enough money over the next year to go on the trip. We would be staying in a tent on my mom's campsite for free. That means no hotel bill, which is one of the most expensive parts of the trip. I want all of these things to work out. Doesn't help that I just had to buy a car! Hey- but I'll get money from the sale of the old car! Forgot about that!
