Yay!! Getting 'em off early!

#1 Post by MiamiRox05 »

The original estimated date of removal was going to be November this year. However at my last visit, I wasn't told anything other than things were looking really great. When I got up front to make my appointment, the receptionist first told me, well looks like they're coming off in August and I about did a back flip. Then she stops and sayes, wait no, I'm going to have to check out that. :(
She comes back to say, yeah I was wrong, if everything looks good, you're scheduled to have them taken off as early as the end of July.
WOO HOO! I'm more than excited considering this is almost 4 months earlier than I orginally thought.

I'm a little worried about a gap that hasn't closed up, hopefully it'll all be finished in a month.

Remember people, wear those elastics!!! I've been dedicated to them.
