I'm FREEEEE!!!! Sort of!

#1 Post by uvraise »

Well after 22 months, two weeks and 1 day, my braces are off! It's really an odd feeling to me to see my teeth straight without the braces. I had crooked teeth for so long, they now look foreign to me. I say sort of because I had permanent retainers placed. They're going to take a little getting used to!

Its so good having the braces off, I've had mine off for about 8 years and I have never smiled so much! Now it looks like i need to correct my open bite though so back on they go. Enjoy your new smile :)
