This past june I got my braces off after two very long years. I just had my follow-up appointment for my retainers and I remembered to ask for copies of my records photos. I've put together some comparison shots to show the difference two years of braces has made in not only my smile but my profile too:
I'm so incredibly pleased with the results, I'd do it all over again if I had to! I've got to wear my retainers 24/7 for another six months if I can. We're still trying to move one of my molars into place. It's a bit frustrating, but looking at these photos reminds me that another six months is nothing compared to everything I've already been through.
Your teeth lokk FABULOUS! I only pray mine look like that when mine come off!(I haven't even officially started my journey yet cause I will be braced 10/3 ) I'm truly impressed & I think you have the prettiest teeth I've seen in a REALLY long time-Seriously! You & Attagirl both have the prettiest teeth. Congrats & good luck with the retainers!
