I can not believe how far my teeth have come... Im so excited! Only a year and a half left.
I have an ortho, then dentist, then back to the ortho appt tomorrow.. Im getting my cleaning done.. so I have to go get the wires removed.. and then go to the dentist, then back to the ortho... I plan to floss wire free LOL
I also just had a birthday.. Im the big 27 now.. so when I realized my birthday was coming I decided to go wild and get neon pink and neon green ligs.. LOL
Well there is my update.. I hope to be able to spend more time with you all soon!
ps. my dentist is going to be shocked when he see's my teeth. He saw them pre braces. and I can not wait to get my cleaning!!! LOL

Holy Smokes!! What progress! I'm so jealous.... I've been in braces twice as long as you with about half the results. :(

Your bottom teeth have really straightened out nicely too. Congrats! 8)

Indeed it's an amazing and noticeable improvement. Many many congrats, MrsDantel!!! :D

Interestingly we both turned 27 quite the similar time. Only difference is you got braces 5 months earlier than me; also of course you are a girl and I am not ;)
