YAY!!!!! Im so excited!!!!!! I went to my adjustment today and he told me that Im getting them off on Oct 19th!!!!
I went in today and got fitted for my bonded retainer for the lowers. When I go back in Oct I'll go in at about 10:00am and he said it should take about 2 1/2 to 3 hours because they'll be making the molds and putting the bonded retainer on AND taking my braces off. Thats all on a Thurs. Then on Monday I will go back and pick up my *Hawley* (YAY Im so glad thats what I got!!!) retainer for the top!! I'm so ecstatic!!! It's also my boyfriend's birthday so I'll have no braces in the pics!!!
I wore braces (this time) for 1294 days or 3 years, 6 months and 17 days.
But who's counting?

Thanks for praying for me and thinking happy thoughts.
lol What a coincidence - I got my debanding date too today! But lucky you, you're getting yours off way earlier than me. I don't get mine off until Nov. 7th.
This will be the longest month of my LIFE!! Congrats to you too, Stargirl!
