Congratulations! Whats your first food going to be?

BBQ Ribs (had them this past weekend). So good and I missed them so much.

I am a happy girl now

Congratulations ! I hope you post some pics, I'm sure they'll look great.

Still don't have a digital camera but when I get back to school maybe someone will have one and take a picture of my teeth for me.

Congrats Samantha !!!!!! Wow - a nice short journey you had

Yes, it was a short journey. And considering they were practically Invisible, I guess I was really lucky.

Now I am going to wear my retainer all the time so I don't have to do that again.

Wonderful news! Enjoy you're perfect new smile!

Thank you, I will. And I am planning on wearing my retainer all the time so I won't have to go through it again.

Congrats Amanda, enjoy the big day!

Well it's Samantha but thank you none the less.

What's really weird is I kind of miss them. It was only 8 months but I got used to them being there.

I guess when I get my retainer that will take their place.

I have been meaning to post it but I am getting my braces off on thursday and I am super excited. I will go back to college sans braces and it will be so cool. I will have a retainer that I will have to wear for 16 hours a day but that won't be so bad. I know this is weird but I have decided to keep...

I have beem trying to quit smoking. It is going well :). Nicotine plasters really work. I started with 21 mg ones (i smoked sometimes :(), Now having 14 mg ones and I have not been smoking. I calculated that quitting smoking will almost pay my braces :). It is easy in CA, because you can't smoke in...

I was just teasing, of course

Oh ok.

Sorry about that. I was just in a bad mood because of something else and I probably read it wrong.

So, what you're saying is that not all of the brackets are ceramic

I guess what I mean is the majority except 2, one on each side that the archwire is anchoring into.

I have braces only on my top teeth and all of the brackets on my top teeth are ceramic. Only in the way back on each side do I have metal.

Great Job!

Your teeth really look great

My step sister had an identical configuration while in high school. She played softball and had her two front teeth knocked out on a wayward catch. Part of her treatment to getting them put back in, and keeping everything lined up was to have the two teeth that had fallen out put back in and bracke...

Welcome Jen,

You will find as I did that the journy is the reward as far as braces are concerned.

Welcome again

Wow ... you must take people's teeth in, to notice something like that. No, she just happened to to be laughing and joking with the girls she was with and I saw them as I passed by There have been people on this site, who've begun treatment with just the front two, four or six bracketed, especially...
