Well, on 3/1/07 I'll be at two years, and I'm pretty sure they won't be coming off before then....

Yeah, sometimes, the debandings depress me too. *sigh* :roll:

My estimate is 24-30 months and I have a feeling I will go over because that is just how lucky I am, lol :lol: Seriously though, I thought that was a pretty reasonable estimate considering there's a molar residing in the roof of my mouth that needs to be pulled in. I understand it will take some time and it goes over then oh well. At least I will gone of that retched tooth!

I have a estimated time of 30 months.... I have had upper lingualbraces for 8 weeks (I am 26), after having metalbraces for 25 months from age 12 (estimated time then was 24 months). So the total bracetime for me is pretty high....... But it will all be good in the end :D
