So I went to my ortho for a "regular adjustment" and over heard someone asking my ortho when she would be debanded. (she was asking him while he was working on me) I worked up the nerve to ask him how my teeth are doing and what my deband date looks like. Expecting to hear... "oh nov or dec" like I was told in the begining... I was super excited to hear... "oh your teeth are perfectly aligned.. all level.. and these will be your last wires" WHOO HOO to that! He even went as far as to say I'll be debanded in July. That is a whole 4 months sooner than I anticipated. I'm so happy I was lucky enough to just have some alignment issues no real bite issues but I'm almost done! I post this here cause ya'll can relate
