Hi Jen,

I'm getting mine off tomorrow at 12:30, so I guess I can let you

know. I did have some of my lower brackets removed about 3 weeks ago,

and it didn't hurt, matter of fact, I didn't realize what he was

doing until I heard snap! snap! and said " are you taking some

brackets off? " - " yes " . What a nice surprise that was!

It was a few days before I stopped trying to dig food out from the

phantom brackets/archwire with my tongue. Hard to believe they are

gone. Cleanup is a cinch now.

Anyway, some people are more sensitive to pain than I, nonetheless

I'm going to try to remember to premedicate before I go (anti-

inflam). The part I don't like is the grinding off of the bonding

material - I don't like the dentist much, and it reminds me too much

of that.

Your prom night will be extra special - congrats!

Hi Jen, and congratulations!

Although some people say removal hurts, that was not my experience.

He just took the brackets off -- a little bit of pressure -- and

removed the bands, and then they cleaned and polished my teeth. I had

no trouble at all.

Hope your experience will be teh same.
