Two hours at the orthodontist this morning (he's a busy guy with lots of patients) and I am braces free! Hawley retainer on the top (in BLUE) and bonded lower retainer. I'll post pictures when I get home from work.

Back to the orthodontist...

My retainer doesn't fit?! I've worn it non-stop save for eating and a few pictures, but it's never fit quite right. The orthodontist will be hearing from me in the morning. I didn't do 3.5 years in braces for my retainer not to fit.

Retainer

The orthodontist made me a new retainer and apologized for the first one. I now have two that fit -- after much work, the first one fits pretty well, now too.
