I know how you are. I had braces for 2 years and I was so happy to get them off. It sucked when I would go in and have the wire changed, my teeth hurt so bad the first day after they did that. I have a permanent retainer on my bottom teeth. I hardly ever notice its there. Im sure you are excited. Now you dont have to worry if you ever get food stuck in them. Haha.

I had them on for about 3 years and I didn't like them all that much! Glad you got them off!

 
I had braces from Grade 4 till Grade 8...ahh I hated them soo much lol. You look awesome, not a god awful pic at all. I'll never forget when my ortho told me it was the day to take them off. I was soo happy, ecstatic, I didnt even know what to say, I said after a minute "Wait, what? We're taking them off? All of them?!" Hehe and yes getting wires tightened hurt like OMG, now I wonder why I never took any pain medicine like Jen....god....that would've been smart lol

 
That's great Liz!! My wife and my daughter had them so I know what a relief it is when they are off.. Great photo btw!!!

 
CONGRATS!!! Oh, wait till the bottom comes off, you will feel freer than you have in a long time!
