A month after debracing I am getting my braces back on. I wasn't happy with the way 2 teeth looked, so I expressed my wish to my ortho to put my braces back on. He agreed. It's gonna happen next week. YIPPYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow. If that was me, I'd be terribly depressed! Good for you for your great attitude.

I assume they aren't charging?

Yes, PIGONTHEGO, you're right, they are not charging extra. I still have payments to make until June next year though.
I am happy to get them back because I know that no tweaking in the retainer wire will get those 2 teeth where I want them to be.
My ortho is great!!!

That great. I'm curious now can you post some pics of the teeth you're not happy with? I had just a little movement when mine had been removed.

Were you unhappy before they came off? Or did the movement happen after they came off? What is your sentence?

That's excellent! You have such a great ortho. I hate the ones that are like "Oh that is the best it can get" just to move you along.

I got my braces back on yesterday. Upper 4 to 4. Lower 5 to 5. It feels just like when I got braced the first time...they gave me a little bag with dental goodies...they put on the thin round wire...It feels like I'm starting all over again.
VA5 - I was happy when the braces came off. The movement started after. There was a little spring put in my upper Hawley behind my UR1, which ended up messing my tooth up. Until today, I have no idea why it was put there. My lower right canine started rotating about 2 weeks after debanding. I did not ask what my sentence is. One thing I know for sure: I am only taking them off when everything is PERFECT.
