Miss your ortho and staff?

I still have a ways to go with braces, but I will probably miss them, a little

They are always friendly, and one of the guys and I always talk about random things. But I won't miss braces and the associated annoyances!

Well, I won't be in braces for 4 more days, but I adore my treatment coordinator and will miss her if she leaves during my treatment, or when I finish.

We hit it off pretty well already and have traded wedding pics, lol.

OK, so the most recent "season" was "the cream cheese was on sale at Safeway"

I have been thinking of sending a few giant bags of Doritos to my ortho's office when I get debanded

Maybe I'll do it to celebrate my one year mark - no one else will care about it after all

NO WAY...not at all, in fact I was discussing this with my work colleagues today saying I cannot wait until the point comes where I do not have to go to the ortho every 6 weeks. I really have detested every minute, the pulling and poking around, impressions that make me gag, the adjustments (always painful) feeling like I cant complain because I'm an Adult and should be able to deal with it...lol I could go on.
I just hate the whole going to the dentist/ortho thing and find the whole process so humiliating, I will be happy in a few weeks when my brace is off and I have my retainer

Dont get me wrong, I'm glad I finally found the confidence to have it done and I am pleased with the results but will I miss my ortho...NO.

My orthodontist and his staff are great, nice, wonderful people, but I don't know if I'll really miss them that much. I don't really have much to say when I'm there. I guess I'm kind of shy.

I'll definitely miss DG and his staff. They are all really friendly and helpful. Plus because my treatment is more complex than average, DG has said a few times that treating me is a challenge for him and that he enjoys working out what he is going to do next and discussing the treatment plan with me etc. So it makes me feel a bit special, i suppose.
