YES I FINALLY REMOVED MY BRACES AFTER LIKE 2 YEARS 4 MONTHS AND 6 DAYS! Pretty happy with the outcome except the fact that my teeth is seriously discoloured and I'm so so so disturbed by it.

Don't you think that my 5k was well-spent after looking at the 'before' photos? Such a drastic change and I swear that it takes alot of courage to post these photos up... Just want to encourage those who are hesitating to put on braces to go for it! Treat it as long term investment and you should do it when you are young.

All the money spent, pain, time and effort are definitely worth it.
