Can't clench my jaw anymore...

Such a strange feeling. Not that that's a bad thing. I wonder if that means my bite is a little off. I still think it's worth it to have straighter bottom teeth. Besides the aesthetic benefits, they are easier to floss.
My retainer is super tight when I put it on every night, but I will wear it forever to keep up my smile.
My dog ate one of the two retainers I had. :(

Glad to see that I am not the only 40 something with braces on lol. Mine were put on in January top and bottom. I hope to get them off in February ( fingers crossed). Yours look great !!!!
It feels so good to have them off! But it was so worth it.

Wow, they look fantastic. I've been following your journey as we started around the same time. When are they coming off / I can't see how they can get any better ? I think mine need another month or so. But only the bottom. the top came off before my big 5oth birthday celebrations.
Happy 50th! Mine were scheduled for September, but my ortho says maybe an extra month, though I'm not sure why. I do want to get it right the first time though (or technically, the second time since I had braces in my teens). and I'm trusting him. I'm thrilled!
Sorry for my late reply. They feel good. You might mention the buffed feeling to your ortho. Was it the hygenist who did the polishing?
