Yes, it hurts getting them off. The actual chipping off the brackets themselves is relatively painless but when they take a white hot drill bit to your teeth to grind away the glue, and it hits your nerves, Jesus, ow.

Bingo.

I've had my braces off for a little over 6 years now. My teeth still want to shift all over the place if I go more than one night without wearing my retainer. I was supposed to only need my retainer one night a week, starting 4 years ago. Bull****.

Oh well, maybe you'll get luckier. My retainer doesn't even fit right anymore.

I read a story once about a dentist who ****ed up braces for this guy so that every time they removed a bracket it brought chunks of teeth with it. It sounded incredibly painful. Pretty sure he took legal action against the dentist as well.

Then you have to wear retainers until forever.

I know someone who's teeth actually were pulled out when they took the brackets off. I think they were baby teeth, which I don't know why he'd get braces in the first place, but even then that would suck.

I've had something like braces too for some years.
But I'm over it since another three to four years, not sure.
It paid off =)

Well congrats on losing yours and your nice teeth!

1. Seriously, stop all of the hate on the Wii and leave Nintendo alone!
2. And this is coming from the self-proclaimed Sony fanboy who only plays mature rated games for hardcore gamers such as yourself.
3. you look for two minutes and we'll find one of your nice little "wii sux" comments
4. we've heard it too much from you, so go with your other "ps3 0wnz da wee" friends and leave the nintendo supporters alone for once
5.  let me tell you about my sexuality even though nobody asked. . .
