I had one for a couple of years so I know how pleasing it is to finally be rid of it. Congratulations, find yourself a treat to celebrate with.

Congrads and now you can have all those foods you were denied while you had to have them on:wah:popcorn, celery....I could go on. My daughter just got her top ones on.

:)Congratulations. My younger daughter had braces and when she got them off I couldnt believe how beautiful her teeth looked.

All 4 of my kids got my teeth & hubby's looks. Something had to give:wah: My older daughter's teeth are beautiful, but she will have to wear a retainer for the rest of her life.

Chonsi

That's just wonderful!

I am getting the Invisalign braces in a couple of weeks. I will have to wear them for about a year or so.

I'm looking forward to having a near-perfect smile

Oh Cher, you will look so pretty (although you are so pretty already) and be so glad you got them. My retainers are like invisalign, you cannot see them at all.

Good question :p

They cost between $5,000 and $5,500, depending how many sets you need over time.

As I understand it, I will wear each pair of Invisalign braces for a two-week period. At the end of two weeks, I put on a new pair. I am to wear them for 22 hours per day.

My teeth have moved as I have gotten older. If you have spaces between your teeth (as I do), they can move all through adulthood. Mine really have.
