sooo i havent had my braces taken care of in over a year because i use to live with my aunt in PA where i gotten them taken care of but then i moved to WV with my dad and i havent been since then and it's been a year and 3 months. i called one ortho today and asked if they could take them off and they said no because im not a patient and i called and left a voicemail for another ortho. im not going to PA to get them off i want to get them off within the next two weeks for senior pictures. any suggestions? i dont want to have to go through the whole trouble of becoming a patient ;; i just want to walk in then walk out. simple.
oh yeaa ;; i called one ortho for advice and they said to take my wire out so it wouldn't mess me teeth up so i did and i have every at school askin me why i have it off lol gahhh i want them off soon.
ohhhh and i appreciate everyones answers. i wish i could give best answer to everyone lol

call your old ortho, tell him u moved and ask him to transfer your file to an ortho in your area. (or at least give you a couple of ortho names he knows and send you the file by mail)

he might charge you for that tho.
