Your teeth look fantastic. Good for you.

Are you going to eat anything special that was on the no-no list?

A huge steak, candy apple, popcorn balls, everything haha!
My teeth are super sore so I'm going to have to wait a couple days to attempt them.

When you do, you have to post how it was so I can live vicariously through you. I've only had braces for 16 weeks, so it will be a long time before I can do that.

Make sure you enjoy every bite :-)o

Wow! Your teeth look GREAT!!

I'm scheduled to get my braces off on November 4th, but my Ortho left little gaps for veneers to fix 2 "peg" lateral inscisors on top. So, I'm excited my braces will be off but I'm bummed that these little whistle-makers will still be there :GapToothed:. I wish I could have that beautiful smile when I leave the Ortho office next week. I'm jealous :wink:. Congrats on your new smile!! :D

By the way, any idea how long your teeth are supposed to be sore after the braces are removed? I know we all fantasize about biting into apples, etc. on de-banding day, but I would imagine there is a lot of soreness and loose teeth that day! Just wondering what to expect :)
