Today, I went to the orthodontist, and found out when I was supposed to get my braces off. His exact words, "You'll get them off around Christmas... but we're not sure what year." FML

Today, I got a date for Valentine's Day. The date is with my orthodontist; he's going to tighten my braces. FML
Today, I went to see my orthodontist. He informed me that I have an underbite and I will probably need braces again. I just had them taken off last year, after five and a half years of oral hell. FML
Today, I arrived 10 minutes early to my orthodontist's office to get my braces off. It turns out my appointment was actually one hour earlier, and now the next available appointment is in four weeks. FML
Today, I went to my orthodontist where I was informed that I'll going to the prom, to my brother's wedding, and maybe to university with braces in my mouth. FML
Today, I got my braces off. I also got my tongue pierced. Both by my orthodontist. FML
Today, I got my braces checked by another orthodontist since I've had them for years and my teeth never got the way they should be. After 8 years and 27 x-ray exams, my orthodontist didn't do much except loosen the root of the tooth to the point where I can move it. FML
Today, I got my braces on. When we got in the car my dad looked over and said "well at least we dont have to worry about boys for the next two years." FML
Today, I have an orthodontist's appointment, and I told my best friend that I was going to get my teeth fixed. She replied, "Wow, thanks. Your smile's really awful to have to look at." FML
Today, I went to the orthodontist's to get my braces tightened, and I chose baby blue bands. Turns out they make my teeth look extremely yellow. Only a month and a half to go. FML
Today, I found out that instead of having four wisdom teeth, I have eight. They all have to be removed as soon as possible, which happens to be over the Christmas break. I get to spend my whole vacation in excruciating pain and a swollen face to boot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Unfortunately not everyone is a candidate for Invisalign, otherwise I wouldn't be spending 3 and a half years with my train tracks :/

yea it sucks to have braces in the moment but trust me, 1 year or 5 years, you will love the rest of your life with great looking teeth.

Maybe it's just me but I took it as the orthodontist failing at a corny joke. Around Christmas but not sure which year because it's either the end of December 2015 or the beginning of January 2016. No orthodontist is so unsure about whether someone needs braces for another entire year.

At least you didn't have them for 6 years.

Make sure you wear your retainer. Your teeth will shift back to how they were before. Mine broke and I couldn't afford a new one.

You'll be glad in the end when you have straight teeth. I had mine for about 8, and my sister wore hers for a decade.

I went to the same orthodontist for 14 years. I had a spacer in for 5 years (they said it was supposed to be 2 but they just kept it in). I finally left them and went to a new orthodontist. The new place was shocked and said it shouldn't have been in my mouth in the first place. They took it out the first day I was there. They charged my parents outrageous amounts of money for it as well. Go get a second opinion. It really helps.
