After a long absence from this board, I have had my top braces taken off and wanted to keep everyone posted! I had them take the tops off early, as I will be spending several months abroad for an internship and didn't want to have braces in all my pictures!
Here's some pics of the progress, beginning with the way they USED to look:
In Dec. 2005:
And how they look now:
Still not perfect - I'll need to have them put back on for 4-6 months when I get home, but for now, I'm REALLY enjoying my new look, especially in pictures. Plus, it's SO easy to floss without those wires!
Best to you all in your orthodontic journey!

Your top teeth (in the beginning) looked a lot like mine, so this gives me a lot of hope!
Congratulations

Your teeth look great! I can't believe all the progress in only 14 months. How long did you have the top expander?
