So when will I get my braces off?!


Question: So when will I get my braces off?
I had my braces on for like 2 and a half years now, and I'm sick of them... How do you know when you're going to take them off?
At the start of the treatment my dentist was like "ohhhh, yeah it'll take about a year or so to straighten your teeth"...
And for the last six months every time I come to get my braces tightened, he's always like "Wow, nice progress we'll be taking these off soon"... He's been saying that for the last six months, plus whenever I ask him he always says "soon"...
Like what the hell?

Answers:

My ortho says that too. I've had my braces on for the same amount of time as you have, and trust me, I feel your anger and frustration. You know when you'll get them off....My orthodontist keeps saying that while my teeth are looking straight, there's still some tweaking that can be done and the longer you have them on, the more likely they're going to stay straighter when you get them off....Hope I helped....Good luck...Trust me, when you get yours off, the process will totally be worth it!

Nah, don't worry about it. They're not that bad. Just think, you're teeth will be PERFECT by the end of it. ;)

I'MMA BRACE FACE!



Each case different. Only your orthodontist can give you an estimate.
