I have been meaning to post these for a while. I had some bonding done a few weeks after my braces. Here are the results: http://i39.tinypic.com/1zxb97k.jpg http://i39.tinypic.com/2mzysmb.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/6tii40.jpg I had a lot of wear and tear on my teeth from them being croweded for so l...

Amazing! You must be so pleased... I joined the club yesterday! Cheers to corn on the cob, ribs and taffy!

Okay.. I imagine someone else has posted this.. and I did search prior to posting.. but needed to rant... So, yesterday before getting my braces off, my bite felt perfect! Maybe a teeny bit wonky in some areas... but was assured it may just need a little bit of sanding down from the dentist to be &q...

Lol! I am so embarrassed at how big those photos are!! You can see all the baking soda still on my face from the dental cleaning! Ew, I am so sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Braces, Today I found out that I will be saying goodbye to you next Wednesday. I never thought I would say this, but I think I will miss you. I know we fought a lot, but we had some good times, and you were there for me so much. I will never forget the time you got a black bean stuck on you on ...

I am so, so, so excited... after 4 years of many tears and frustrations, it looks like I will be getting my new smile this year for Christmas. I dont know if yall remember me posting a while back... but I was pretty frustrated. After going almost two years past my treatment date, I wasn't happy at a...

Hi all! Looks like I will be a member of the "october brace club!" My dentist planned to do a little shaping and whitening when my braces come off, so I had an appoint with her to make sure everything was exactly where she wanted it so she could do her job post-braces. She made a few helpf...

Hi all! I am excited to report that after a way too long journey in my braces, I have been told, confidently by my ortho, that she envisions me coming out of my braces in SEPTEMBER! It seems there is still a bit of fine tuning to do.. which has me curious. What were your final months in braces like?...

I doubt the force of pulling it orthodontically broke your tooth--- because if this were the case, I imagine many orthodontist would be timid to pull impacted teeth! My guess would be that maybe there was some decay developing while it was impacted (this can happen I think if it's been impacted a wh...

I am terrified, too! I had 4 teeth removed and a canine exposed.. and I have dreams that I wake up the day after I get my braces off and my gaps have opened back up and my canine magically moves back to the roof of my mouth. LOL!! I have had my braces almost 4 years, they are so apart of who I am no...

Thanks guys! I thought I'd show you the difference regular braces made in THREE weeks! Still a little way to go, but I am finally seeing the finish line!! Hooray!

Just wanted to share a little insight.. I posted on here about 6 weeks ago. I was a very upset, frustrated orthodontic patient. I had my IBraces on for going on 3 and a half years (with an original treatment plan of 26 months!) and was just not seeing the 'light at the end of the tunnel.' Especially...
