I'll be 31! Which, I just realized, means I'll be getting my new driver's license picture taken with braces on ... great. :roll:

Wow, I also just realized that I'm going to be 31 in a few months. How did that happen? 31? Really? Damn.
Braces on 4/4/07 -
Braces off 3/31/08!

Well I thought I was going to be 32 when I get debraced. I got my uppers one month before my 32nd birthday and was told it would be 6 months of treatment. Well it has been 15 months, I turned 33 two months ago, so I will be 33 when I get debraced. I was promised that I would go "naked" at the end of the summer.

I'll still be 39 in May, 2009. Maybe I don't understand the question? :wink:

Nearly 18 :) De-banding is expected to be 2 or 3 months before my 18th birthday. (Of course, its still early on in my treatment, so it can still change)

36 I hope! Braces went on June 4th 2007 and I am expected to take two years to sort out.

Long way to go, but it'll be worth it!

My ortho says I'll be in them for at least two years, so I'll be around 40 - 41 when they come off.
