I got my braces off today.
Just thought I would share that.
My teeth feel naked.
I hate my teeth. They look huge.
I have retainer wire on the back of my teeth, forever.
Ughhh.
I miss my braces.
Even though my teeth are wonderfully nice and straight…
NOOOO!
I want braces back.
:) I feel cooler with them.

My teeth are ugh.
=SSS
I was so used to braces and they gave me originality.
I know.
my daughter got hers off last year. for a couple of weeks she felt the same…
until one day a boy said “You’ve got a beautiful smile!”
she’s loved her teeth ever since.

It might feel weird at first but like cailean said this will pass and you will get use to not having them. It will just take some time.
Congratulations btw :D

Oh, you’ll get used to it, and learn to love your teeth! ♥
I just got mine off about a month ago, it felt weird at first, but things went back to normal.

I had to get them.
(: My k-9 teeth were WAY up in my gums and were going to come down when I was like 19 (where my 2 front teeth are).
So they had to cut out my baby teeth and stick gold chains up there and pull them down.
xDDD
But that was a few months ago.
(: my teeth are nice and straight.
But It feels creepy and slimey… at a point.

:D Lucky. xD Don’t eat cereal the first week! They don’t hurt much after the first 3 weeks. Also, prepare to spit on people. rotfl. I did that a lot in the beginning until I got used to it and stopped.

I brushed all the time but they still look yellow-ish? NASTAY. Really. It’s annoying me.

My canine teeth were far up too…so high it imflammed my gums. You could see the whole thing, but only when I lifted my lips lol
You have no idea how much i was teased…
Braces rock for fixing that, though I hated wearing the rubber bands
Ohh. I hated rubber bands. ;PPPP
I sucked at changing them too. I would forget about it and eat with them it.
If it snapped; it didn’t hurt.

I ate a few by accident.
I once tried to put it on during lunch and it snapped back and flew ALL the way across the cafeteria and hit my friend in the head. LMAO.

They gave me a choice weather to get them off in 4 weeks or 6 weeks.
I chose 6 weeks but my mom couldn’t be there to watch so it had to be 4 weeks.

The more compliments you get, the more you’ll like them :)

I had the same issue with my K-9s, only my first orthodontist put the brackets on the baby teeth and I had to use pliers to cut them out when they finally came- one of the K-9s came on its own volition, but the other one got the chain! Did you have your braces for like six years too?
OH MAN…I remember the day I got my braces off I cried because I felt like they looked so BIG…and then my sister came home and said I looked like a horse…it was so painful LOL…even tho she was kidding I cried for months…but they arent big haha they just feel big because you are so use to having that metal there..I had mine on for 2-3 years…so I was use to them….you will get use to it…and now that I have them off I love it…they are so straight hehe…congrats :)
you will get used to them being off… its just like .. how did you feel when you first got them on… it felt weird right… well same applies here..
also, you say your teeth are big and such.. you are just use to seeing braces on them in which takes up a lot of room on your teeth.. im sure you have very pretty teeth.. so keep smiling..

Because I could never fully brush them like I wanted too. (The teeth that were being pulled down).
Haha.
So, that irritates me.
(: But I’ll make sure to take pictures!
