One week until Eve's debanding! PICS

#1 Post by Evelyn »

Wow, I can't believe that today finally marks the beginning of my last week in braces. In exactly one week, July 5 at 10:30 am, I will officially be a part of the naked tooth club.

That's surreal to say, honestly. There have been so many setbacks...at the beginning I was told 24-30 months in braces, and here I am ending at 46 months. It's been hard, but I have to say that setbacks really do make the end all the sweeter. It's been worth it, definately. I'm finishing up at 17, and even though to me it seems old (I've had braces all through high school and middle school) I know that it'll be worth it because this beautiful smile will stay with me for life.

I am so excited to finally see my teeth again, honestly I don't remember what it's like to not have braces I've had them for so long. It's going to be amazing, I've been waiting for this day for 46 months and now I'm on the 7 day count down-sweet victory, I made it, we made it, thank you so much everyone for all of your support throughout my hmmm, adventure, shall we say, it's finally ending now and I couldn't be happier
:D

Here are some pics as they stand now:

and here's my bite...my front teeth aren't that big I was just trying to get a close up there

I've got the watermelon colors-I was going to be boring and go for silver, but the assistant wouldn't let me so I went wild.

Take a good look at those pics, because in one week, everything will have changed :D

Much love, Eve
