I have a date window... does that count? hehe. I need a crown and then I'm going on vacation (camping) so I don't want to get braces on and then leave electricity for 5 days haha. So I am thinking the first or second week of June. I'll know for sure when the crown comes back from the lab.
After I made my previous post I scrolled up and realized I had already freaked out over your gorgeous teeth with your last pic! lol! You have lovely chompers I guess!
Slightly disappointed as I thought that I would be getting debanded this month. Well they took an impression of my lower arch for the lower retainer. They were really happy how the class 2 elastics have done their job, so they have changed the elastic configuration to a triangle each side to keep everything aligned. Thinking positive, I did actually think that I would need a little bit more time for some tweaking and I have a deband date for 6th August, 2014 at 0900 hrs if all is well. I will be keeping my fingers crossed that this does not change except to bring it forward. Hoping this is my last brace face photo.

I was supposed to be debanded Wednesday, but I had to cancel and reschedule my appointment for the 18th august. I have just got out of the hospital and needed to have further tests that could only be done at the same time as my ortho appointment. This is so frustrating. No bare teeth pics for a while.
Well they are finally offskies. After a few false alarms, they look a bit like false teeth now, cos they are soo perfect. let me know your verdict. Now to deal with the retainers. I have top and bottom permanent and a Hawley that I don't think fits correctly and I am supposed to have the invisalign type, also in 4 weeks.
Thanks all for all the help and advice, haven't been on here in a while as I was in the hospital and recovering.
