Hey Danish, that's awesome :D Congratulations!! You know, I think sometimes the braces make the small imperfections seem more apparent than they really are. When I got mine off, the little things I had been annoyed with didn't seem as visible to me anymore. Maybe it's because the braces sort of act ...

I haven't posted full face photos and will not do so in the future either, but I am just curious... are you mainly referring to photos of faces with the braces on or does that include photos of faces without the braces? I don't see too many full face photos but the ones I have seen on here are mostl...

Yayyyyy!! Congrats :-88 :jump: :banana: :mrgreen: That's very exciting - I know because mine just came off 2 days ago and I'm into the Crest White Strips now. They are actually working pretty well. I've only used 3 applications out of 14 and I can already see the difference. I do wish the strips wer...

Well when I was 11 I had to have 2 adult molars removed due to cavities on the bottom arch. Then last year when I got braces I had to have two bicuspids removed on the top arch to make more room. I still have all my wisdom teeth. So that makes me missing 4 adult teeth - not sure how many we are supp...

Aww sorry to scare you briggsy! It was not pleasant getting them taken off but I have come away from it ok. Still got the same end result, just with a *bit* more pain at the end :? Anyway, it was still worth it (of course) to have had the braces whether it be ceramics or metal but at the beginning I...

I don't know about the molar bands because I didn't have them, just had regular brackets on all my teeth. But my gums swelled alot during braces and when I got them off today, the ortho said they had swollen up over some of the glue/cement that was holding the brackets on so he couldn't get it all o...

Well I just got my braces off today and you know what, I wish I knew how painful the ceramic ones are to remove! It was baddddd - felt like my teeth were being twisted out and then they kept breaking so the ortho had to use the sander drill to drill the rest of the bracket off and it took forever. T...
