braces off!

#1 Post by sophielafille »

Hey everyone, I got my braces off today, I'm so happy I've been smiling ever since! Am I happy with the result? Yes! Was it worth it? I'm not sure...my teeth were pretty crooked before, but straightening them out opened up two black triangles because I have alot of bone loss. The 21 months I spent in braces were horrible, I hated braces! I'm so happy they are gone!
