My journey started last year - my ortho said I would be braced anywhere from 18 to 24 months.. but they are coming off on August 19th!!!! which will put me at about 16 months

I AM SOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations! It's nice to see fellow Spring 2009 banding patients finishing up. It gives me hope for my own inevidible date in the (hopefully) not so distant future!

I think we got braced on the same day. I got mine off last week - it feels fabulous! I am still getting some minor refinements done with active retainers but I am delighted with my teeth.

Good luck!

some pictures... not the greatest pictures...

about my treatment - overbite - but very slight, crowding on the bottom and my canine was impacted - I looked like a bunny - my two front teeth were much longer than the two teeth next to them and now they are still a bit longer but I think they are supposed to be? my ortho said he can shave them down for me but only if I want - no elastics were needed just a lot of powerchains!

(this is actually my top pic was taken upside down)

NOW...
