But it's not over, yet. Oh no! I have to wear a clear retainer 24/7 for 4 months. It stretches my lips over my teeth in a weird way- kind of like a Billy Madison, idiot looking kind of way. Maybe I'm just getting used to it, but I don't like the way I look with it in. I paid a lot for straight teeth, though and I'm not going to mess it up just because I'm not looking stellar. Heck, I haven't looked that way in 2 years of brace face either. The upside- they take so much time and effort to take out and all this spit comes pouring out (not something you want to do in public) that it has decreased my snack attacks!

Congrats! That is exciting. I still remember the thrill of running my tongue across my teeth again.
man i am sooo jealous! i want braces so bad, perhaps the orthodontist will give me a deal when i take my kids in for theirs.
congratulations! Now go eat a candied apple and some chewing gum!
Your teeth look great. The retainer is a pain but just remember little brother Tim wore his faithful for 4months and still wears it every night. While sister Cindy did not wear hers. Look at the difference. Love Mom
