Last day of braces...
So I will be getting my braces off tomorrow!! My original off date was 26th August but when I went for a check up the week before, my bite was off on the right side with not having any elastics on. So I had to have more bands on the right side to pull my bite together, so front to back and box band same as the left side. I went for a check up last Tuesday and my orthodontist was very please and said they can come off! Even though I've been waiting for this moment for nearly a year, I'm an bit apprehensive about having them off...in a weird way I think I will miss them (a little) and wondering what my teeth will feel like again without braces?!?! I'm soo soo pleased with the results and I really can't recommend braces enough. So...I'll update tomorrow with final pick and what happens during the removal procedure and aftercare. Soooo excited!!!

Last few weeks of braces (hopefully!!!)
So I had a check up a week ago. My bands have changed again, I'm now wearing no bands on the right side as my bite is perfect. I have to continue with 2 bands on my left and I'm now wearing a box band also on the left to try align my bite on this side. Getting close to the finish line now, 3 more weeks and I'm going for another check up and if my orthodontist is happy we've planned to schedule the debonding the week after! So exciting!!!

Hi there! Just checking how your progress is going on. Do you feel you are getting a fuller and wider smile? That is one of the features from Damon braces, although I just had a consultation with a dentist who claims 3M Gemini braces do the same as Damon braces. Did you worry about your orthodontist having enough experience with them to ensure you get the most out of it?

They're coming off tomorrow! Yes definately have a wider smile. My arch was so narrow before. I just got a good feeling about my orthodontist and did a bit if research before. It helped that i saw someone else before that and had a comparison. She had a lot of experience. Will post update soon x

Hi Tracey. Thanks for sharing your journey. Sounds like you've been through a lot but it looks beautiful. Congrats on getting them off soon! I just started Damon braces a month ago. I'm thinking of sharing my journey on here, too, possibly. :-)

How are you getting on? The first few weeks are soo hard. Do post a review! Not just to help other people but to track your own progress. Take lots of photos! It's weird but it's good to see before and after photos. Even if you don't post it here x

Thanks for asking. It's been 5 weeks. My left lateral incisor is rotated by 90 degrees. So far the only movement is that my front tooth is starting to buck out and flare. LOL! I'm optimistic though, and eager to no longer have a sideways tooth. They say it could be straight by the holidays :)
