I got my braces off, after 6 years of waiting!! It's so weird, my teeth are all smooth and slimy, I am also getting some crest whiting strips. I need them really bad.. I don't have any pictures on the computer before I got my braces but...

Wow, congrats!! I've had mine for about 3 years now. :o I'm actually used to them now, they don't bother me that much. I get mine off in October :D I'm very excited!
By the way, you have beautiful teeth!!
YYAAAAAAY!! Congrats Bre!!
Congrats! :D I get mine off soon after 2 years. I'm so excited!
Congratulations!! :) My daughter was so happy when hers came off after a little over 2 years. She has been great about using her retainers. Hope you will be, too!!!! :)

I will be too.. Since I am homeschooled I will wear it all day and night long. I will only take it out if I have to go somewhere. I get my retainer Tursday. I hate retainers thoguh I had one for a couple years before I got my braces. :(Quote:

I had them for 4 years. Mostly due to mom cancelling apointment and forgeting to make another one. I still have an overbite tho. NOt too terrible, but atleast my teeth are straight. Tho I do still have a small gap between my front 2, but its not bad at all. I had horrible crooked teeth.
soooo.. how did they get your tooth to where it was supposed to be? did they move it behind each tooth as the moved the others over somehow? I'm confused.
Congrats on your pretty teeth!!
They hooked a chain from my canine tooth, and put the chain under my gums, they would pull the chain with a rubber band and cut the chain when it go closer and closer. I hope that makes sence. Thanks everyone.Quote:
