In the dental room:

Doc grabs some weird looking tool, turns around, humming to himself, and sticks that freakin' thing into my mouth.

"here goes", he says. After applying some pressure, a "POP!!!" sound was heard, and something came off.
A loud "AH!" escaped from me.
"What? Does it hurt?", Doc asked me.
"Hell no, that was fun. Lets do it again."

And so the popping continues...

That's it. My braces are off. Finally, after 2 bloody long years. So there. gtg
