I only just realised that I have now been braced for one year (and a bit). Hooray! It's gone really quickly. Can't wait till the end now, hopefully not too long but really I don't notice them that much anyway.
I just had my one year braceaversary as well. As with you i notice them less and less, but still can't wait to get them off though. I'm looking into about 6+ months with braces, then surgery, and then braces for another couple of months. What's your sentence?
Hey!
Me too! I had my tops and bottoms put on different dates, but it has been over a year for both now. Time sure seems to be flying! And I may be getting them off before Easter! I'll be finding out in two weeks. Yeah!!
