They came off 3 months early!!!!

#1 Post by WiredOldLady »

Got my braces off last Tuesday! I have a bonded retainer on the bottom front 6 and got my top retainer today...its the one that looks like an invisalign tray. I hate it. Oh well...I hope I get used to it.

Getting them off wasn't bad at all...except for the yanking a bit to get the molar bands off. I got my teeth all ground and polished, they're whiter than they've ever been and my face looks SO much different now. I go get my lower retainer on Monday...just in time to move from AZ to NV.

So...I'm thrilled at my results and the discomfort and $$ has been worth every minute and every penny. I need to find a way to post my pictures once I can edit them.

Congratulations! I really envy you. I passed my two year anniversary last month, but since I am more dense then some other patients (per my ortho :roll: ) there remains some additional movement by the big boys on the bottom.
