Hello! Congratulation on your decision to improve your teeth. I think it's fairly common to get top and bottom done at different times. I got my upper brace on about a month before the bottom. At this stage the time will seem like a huge amount, but in reality, it passes pretty quickly. Having brace...

Thanks :D My first real meal was a good strong curry! No need to worry about yellowing my braces now! I've also been able to nibble corn on the cob, eat nuts, popcorn and toffee+. But the single best thing for me food-wise, was my first real bite into an apple, and seeing the perfect arches of the b...

I posted this at the end of my story thread, but its such a big deal to me, I think it deserves its own thread :D ALL DONE! Finally, I can't believe it. Sooooo happy! :banana: :jump: :-88 Remember this? http://www.zen103585.zen.co.uk/rob/braced_top.jpg Well now its like this! http://www.zen103585.ze...

Today is the day!

In about 8 hours, I have my final appointment to nakedize (yay! new word!) my teeth

Sadly, these 8 hours will be spent at work...

Just returned from my appointment. :-)o Great news! Braces will be off next visit in a couple of weeks!!! :-)o This will be 7 months before my estimated completion date! :) Impressions were taken today for my bonded retainers, which I will be getting on top and bottom. No pics, because nothing has c...

Thanks guys

Next appointment is next Tuesday. Fingers crossed, I'll either be free or at least have a firm release date!

Wow, great progress It really is a huge transformation from your first pics you showed.

Wow Catfish! Thats great news!

That retainer does look manageable, hopefully that is what I will get shortly

After seeing your videos almost 2 years ago, you helped me make that final decision to get started on my braces journey.

Its so great to see that you've completed yours and got a fantastic result!! I am extremely jelous, but hopefully mine will be off in the near future too

They look fantastic!
You must be so happy

Fingers crossed, I'll be right behind you..

Its taken a whole year to do that!!!!


Got to be close now!

I can't believe it is almost a whole year since I posted here last! Any, a little update for you :) All gaps are closed!!! I did have an appointment scheduled for this afternoon (in which I was expecting my release date) however my Ortho is out of the country and unable to fly home due to the ash cl...

I have to be honest here, if my teeth come out as nice as yours I will be very happy indeed :) However I can appreciate that you are not happy, and I can see the issues you are talking about. In my option you most definately should tell your ortho exactly what you want him to do. After all, we all p...

Congratulations on getting an extra tooth into the party!

I like those animations, they reall show how well your teeth have moved. You must be pretty pleased with your progress for only 4 months!
