first thing post-braces will be burning to ashes the traveller toothbrush which I have been carrying with myself for cleaning up my teeth after lunch at work!! I have been able to eat pretty much every thing while in metal braces, so I don't have any special cravings like ceramics people might have. I miss flirting with the fairer sex (I know.. it's not the braces that stop me but myself. But I can't help it. I feel inhibited with all this metal.... ), so I will probably head straight to some bars and put the new smile to work.

I just got a debanding date of Dec 18th and the first thing I'm doing is heading straight to the dentist for a good cleaning and some tooth shaping!!
After that I'll probably go sink my teeth into something yummy and then let my son giggle at mommy's new look. He's 10 months old and constantly wanting to get his little fingers on my braces. I'm sure he will have a great reaction when he sees me without them

Was braced for all 9 months of my pregnancy and managed to keep fresh elastics on during all 26 hours of labor!!
I did not have anything special in my mind other than have a teeth cleaning and a checkup. After it was found out that i had two cavities i wanted them to be filled asap. And they were fixed 20 hours later
