Damn, I had mine on forever....

8 teeth pulled
1 pair reconstructive braces
2 pair permanent braces
2 upper palatal expanders
1 lower removable palatal expander
4 retainers

God, all of this mainly becasue I got my teeth kneed in (accidentally) by a friend on a rope swing at night....I think I was in 6th grade. Finally got my braces off Junior year of HS.

Well mine took a little longer because my Orthodontist decided to cheat on his wife then she decided to run him over in the Clear Lake Hilton parking lot!
I had them on about 3 1/2 years.
