)

That is really great news! I wonder if you can get up to 10,000 posts before you leave us

Congrats, Meryaten!!!

You've been so helpful on Archwired, and you've gone through so much with your braces process that you certainly deserve a debanding! I also can't wait to see the pics!

A toast to you, your soon-to-be-naked teeth, and all the help and encouragement you've given us here on Archwired!

PS: If I'm ever in Seattle I'll buy you a beer in person; if you are ever in DC, I'll buy you one here!

Well, good on you then. I had a feeling Friday was going to bring good news.

Alrighty. congrats on finally coming to the end. All of us seem to be coming to the end at the same time. Thursday is supposed to be my "possible" day but I've got an annoying space that hasn't seemed to have budged since my last appoinment so I doubt it is going to happen for me....but excellent for you. Pictures are needed when all is said and done!!!!!

Merytan,

A HUGE Congratulations to you!! It's been a long while coming, but you finally have that debanding date. It seemed like the rest of us from the June to September Surgery Crowd were all going to be brace free without you. I can't wait to see your final photo's, brace-free at last.

Tracey - This is such GREAT news! I'm so excited for you. Will be on pins and needles waiting for photos! I have my jaw surgery scheduled with Dr. B for September 24th - so please keep in touch with the forum and me! I've learned soooooo much from you - you are so knowledgable and generous with that knowledge - bless your heart.

Best of luck with "going naked"!

Carol

You know I'm thrilled for you. But I need you to answer one simple question. If you loose all your brackets and wires, how are you going to open your beer?

Just think, in another three years it will be me!!!

Mike

I was just recently wondering when you would be freed, as it seems like your surgery was a while ago and you've had to wait so patiently for this--and the time has arrived! Congrats--can't wait to hear more as the time comes.

Whoo_HOO!!! I was HOPING that's what it was

My best friend got debraced on the 12th (lucky!), but she didn't tell me right away... I was PMing her on MSN, and she said,
"Did I tell you the good news?" and I said, "No" and she said "I'm Pregnant" She is single, and not at all sexually active, so my response was "Nuh-uh... you got your braces off, didnt you!" and about that time, she sent me a picture of her poining at her bare teeth, with a caption in big letters that said "LOOK MA, NO BRACES!"

It was great

(A little off topic but I had to share LOL) Hope the rest of your debanding goes wonderfully!!!
