I had my evaluation (last appointment before debanding) last week on my 30th birthday, and my ortho said they're ready to come off in a few weeks! November 28 to be exact. I was hoping it would come off before Thanksgiving, but the only day available was the 28th. I cannot contain this excitement come on 24 more days! 18 months sure flew by quick.
