Typicall 8 or 9 per day. The retainers are not tight like they were at first. Also, after taking the retainers out eac...

Thank you everyone for your very nice comments. Yesterday, I went to lunch with a friend and enjoyed Masaman Curry at a lovely Thai restaurant. It was nice to eat the avacado and cashews without worry <G>! I forgot to mention in my last post my retainers are Hawley's. It is quite difficult to speak ...

Your teeth are looking amazing. Keep up the good work. Good luck with the rest of your journey.

The assistant removed the brackets with a special tool...kind of like pliers...by rocking back and forth gently on each bracke...

Well done. I'm so glad you made it through your surgery okay. Your teeth are looking fabulous. I hope your "new" tooth moves quickly into place. Good luck!

Kim. Your teeth look absolutely beautiful. It has been a pleasure following your journey. Good luck.

Hello everyone! These little suckers are coming off tomorrow. Thanks for your lovely pom pom cheerleader icons Ken!

I bought a candy apple for consumption tomorrow. YEAH!

2 more days. I can't take it any longer. I want the braces off!

By the way, the Wildlife Expo. was wonderful in Charleston, SC. Lovely art. I picked up a few original oil pastel paintings from a wonderful artist who lives in OK.

Hello there. I agree with Victory. I had impressions two weeks ago and am having the braces removed this Thursday. It makes NO sense to remove braces and wait ANY time to put on retainers. My ortho said they didn't want any shifting.

Good luck.

6 Days to go!

Thanks Bracedagain!

I'm in Charleston, SC for the Southeastern Wildlife Expo. Their website is sewe.com

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I can't wait till Thursday!

7 more days!

Thanks so much for your kind words Kiwi and Ken.

I attached a ticker to my signature to celebrate the upcoming D-Day!

Ta ta,

Todd

Congratulations on your upcoming D-Day. Mine is coming up on the 22nd. Yeah!

You're story has been inspirational. Good luck and ENJOY!

You're movement looks terrific. I know how you feel with the sore teeth. Keep up the great work and here's to much more movement toward your goal.

Wow. You're lower teeth look great! You must be so happy. Good luck in the rest of your adventure.
