If you have finished with your orthodontic treatment and are wearing retainers (or will be soon), this is a special place to connect with others in your (enviable) situation. Ask a question or make a comment about life post-braces.
My orthodontist took off my upper braces yesterday and I'm so happy! The actual process of taking them off wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It went pretty quickly. I'm very happy with my teeth. It's so great being able to eat and not get little bits of food stuck everywhere. ha. I'm getting the lower braces taken off next Friday, when I will also be getting impressions for my retainer taken. I can't wait. It was so worth it having braces for two years.
1st day of braces (sorry for such a bad pic..I had a really crappy cam then)
