Debanded!

#1 Post by Liberty »

I actually just joined this website, however I got my braces off yesterday! I am so excited I wanted to share! I had my braces for about a year and 3 months. I now have a bonded retainer on bottom and a hawley on top. They both are working out great for me! I love being able to floss easily and eat food without it getting stuck all over my brackets!

Congratz!
I'm getting mine off tomorrow! I'm so excited!
I wish they never told me, because now my braces are a pain in the......butt : ).

How does it feel? Also, does your teeth hurt?

Nope, no pain at all! They feel great! I love my smile and I am definitely going to wear my retainers 24/7 for a year as instructed by my ortho. Thanks for the comments!
