It’s official! I am braces free!!! My orthodontist also exceeded my expectations. I am in love with my new smile and I finally have the confidence I have always longed for! I am wearing a Hawley retainer which is going to take some time getting used to (though my speech has already improved after le...

Well I get my braces off in the morning which makes today the last day I am in braces! It has not sunk in yet that I will be brace free as of tomorrow. The funny thing is that I am looking forward to my cleaning equally as much as I am looking forward to being debraced! Lol. Wish me luck everyone. I...

Well as of tomorrow I'll officially have only 2 more days left in braces! Man the time has actually flown by! I am so excited for my retainer. Something about not have something glued on my teeth makes the wearing the retainer so much better. You'd better believe that I'll wear the retainer as instr...

oops... that was suppose to say "nearly 4 years" lol

Your teeth look fantastic!!! You must be so excited!!! Yay for you!

I get mine off in 6 days! Wow.... 6 DAYS!!! I have had them on for nearly years so it'll be nice to smile and realize that, yes I do have teeth under these things!

Congrats again! You have a beautiful smile!

Congrats John!!! :jump: :-* That is great news! I get mine off in 10 days!!! I simply cannot wait! I will be even happier when I get a cleaning done 2 days after getting debraced! I am not sure what it's gonna be like to smile for the first time without having crooked teeth or braces. Wow! What a fe...

Congrats Jewles!!! So exciting! I can't wait till I have mine removed. Only 17 days to go! (though it seems to be taking forever!) :) So what was having them removed like? I am so excited but also slightly nervous. I hope it goes by quickly and the brackets just pop off. So happy for you and everyon...

That is awesome! Feb 8th is just around the corner! So happy for everyone in this club. I officially have 18 days until it's debrace day for me. Wow! 18 DAYS! (Feb 21st!!) I am getting a hawley on both top and bottom. At the moment, I do not care that I will have to wear a retainer for a while, I am...

Congratulations to all of you guys! I am so excited. I had my retainer molds made today and on February 21st I’ll be out of braces. I am getting the Hawley retainer. I was hoping for the essix but I think that my ortho prefers Hawley. That’s okay though. I am just so thrilled to be out of braces soo...

Thanks Kirsten2011! I am very excited to have my braces removed.. though I must admit I am also nervous that I will go to the ortho that day and they will say that I must wait a little while longer. Lol. It will be nice to smile without feeling like everyone is just staring at my braces. :D Congrats...

I have my fingers crossed for you! It's funny because when I got the debrace day, I was so excited!!! Now all I can think about is what if somthing goes wrong and I can't have them removed then!! Ahhh :!: Lol. My ortho is awseome and I can't wait till d-day! Here is hoping that we both get our wish ...

I know it may seem early but is anyone getting their braces off in February? My debrace date is Feb. 21st and I am so happy! 3 years in braces and they are finally coming off! Yay!

So after nearly 3 years in braces (due to traveling and one very bad orthodontist) I am finally getting my braces removed on Feb. 21st. I cannot wait. I went in for an adjustment today and they told me that on my next visit (Jan 17th), we will be making my retainer molds. Wow! Already! Can’t wait! T...
