Hey, people get braces these days just because they like the way braces look, but I’m going to guess that the decision was care of an orthodontist… Hopefully he didn’t hassle Notorious about her 14ga philtrum piercing (aka Medusa piercing).

ugh, I hate it when dentists and such give me shit about having a tongue piercing, and then immediatley retract what they just said because I’m not a moron and don’t wear steel balls on my barbell. cute pic though!

Braces are cute and I like piercings…. but as a piercer, I’d definitely have to say no to that one. I had a philtrum and scrumper at the same time, and no matter what jewelry combination I used, including custom-made stuff, the two pieces of jewelry always got caught together. I imagine this would be somewhat similar.
But then again, what do I know? It’s my normal practice to discourage ANYBODY who’s spent lots of time and money on their teeth to get any oral piercing. I can’t discourage everybody, but at least if people think about it a little harder, they may make the decision that their oral health is more important than a piercing… and besides, there’s always somewhere else to pierce!

Aww cutie. If she is having the interlockuing braces/disk problem I suggest a little peice of that orthodontic wax on the back of the peircing. Worked quite well for me 🙂 & love the boxing gloves too!

sorry if im falling out here,m but i find braces are one of the most disgusting things there are! i really hope she has them in for medical reasons and will take them out eventualy, i thinks theres nothing more unattractive than braces on women…but then again theres alot of people who dont agree with me…

I never got to have braces – I was cursed with straight teeth but I tried my damnedest to convinve my dentist I had a crooked one. My stupid big sister got to have them…as did all my friends! Look how adorable they can look…

This girl is beautiful 🙂 (Jealous!)
She kind of looks like the Ugly Betty girl (only not ugly, obviously, and a bit more modded).
I am very in love with those plugs, I think I might have to invest in a pair sometime soon. And her bangs… I love a girl who can rock bangs and not look ridiculous. I might have a girl crush.
