Hi

Glad all is progressing well for you, it's great to see everything is on track. How's the journey been so far?

Fabulous progress! Hope all is going well with your treatment

It is such a coincidence that you've replied to this thread now, it's almost a year old. In May this year I visited a new ortho, decided to go ahead with damon clear, had my models made up but have experienced delays. Finally got a brace on date for Sept only to just loose the job I've been in for 1...

Thanks so much for your reply, 3 just seems like an awful lot of teeth but hearing that someone else is having 3 removed too does make me feel a little more confident. Hope you don't mind me asking, but which teeth are you having removed? Glad to hear that you'd extractions didn't hurt, hope all goe...

Hi all I've always been reluctant to go through with extracting healthy teeth, however, having had four consultations and been told by each ortho that extractions from the top would be necessary, I've bitten the bullet and decided to go ahead with treatment. I'd accepted that I'd need to have a toot...

Gorgeous, your teeth look just fab, congratulations on your perfect smile!

Wow, fabulous progress, your teeth are looking amazing.

Huge congratulations on your pregnancy too, exciting times ahead for you!

Yey, I'm so pleased that they're on and aren't causing you too much pain at present, long may if continue! They look great too by the way, keep us up to date with lots of lovely progress pics

Oh how exciting! So pleased to hear that the extraction hasn't been too troublesome, I can't wait to see you braced. Hope all goes well tomorrow.....I'm feeling quite envious

Wow, they look fab! £500 sounds like a bargain to me too

How are you feeling now you're a few days in? Hope all is going well and is pain free.

Thanks everyone, I've decided to wait. The wedding is a really big event in my life, my husband is best man, and I really want it to be a day to remember for all the right reasons. Any other events as big or meaningful to me really are few and far between. The other reason is money. If I wait until ...

Good luck tomorrow, hope all goes well

I've taken a look at your blog, it's great, make sure you carry on updating it as it's fascinating to see the progress.

Be sure to update us tomorrow.

So, I have a brace on date of 10 July for my uppers with two extractions to follow, not sure when extractions will take place as it depends on the movement of my teeth. However, I have a holiday booked and my step brothers wedding in the last fortnight of August and have concerns about the possibili...

Ok, so I've contacted the dental nurse who has been dealing with me and she has been great. She's speaking to the ortho re tweaking my treatment to cut the cost and about the possibility of just correcting my top arch for the time being. She's also getting info for me re spreading out my payments mo...

Forgot to mention, I'm not keen on having metal as I have a nickel allergy, and I can arrange payment over a longer period with them but I would have to pay interest which I'm not prepared to do.

Will take a big, deep breath and speak to them honestly on Monday. Thanks again everyone.
