1 year anniversary today!!!!!

#1 Post by chrisd »

well it has been exactally one year since i had my braces 'glued' on. time has really flown by, i really feel like they are still new, though i am completely used to them.
i do have to admit that over the past few weeks i have had a few moments where i have just wanted them gone! but i will wear them as long as it takes to get things right!!!
hang in there everyone;-)

Congratulations on your first, and hopefully only anniversary.
The remaining time will fly by and in no time you'll be naked and proud.
Hope there's a lot of progress for you!

Congratulations on making it to the one year mark! As a newly-braced 24-year-old, I find it very invigorating to hear that the time passed quickly for you. Good luck with the rest of your treatment! :lol:
