I just got my braces off three days ago and it feels great. =) I love my new smile and I am very satisfied and soo happy w/ these results. I have been going to Dr. Elvebak for a year now, maybe even more since I have retainer checks, and he is awesome. He is super cool and the rest of his staff are absolute sweethearts. I can't stress how amazing his new office is too! I have been to other orthos for complimentary consultations before I settled w/ him and since I am picky, I had a hard time finding the perfect orthodontist, esp in the Plano area. I told my mom I wanted Dr. E as my doctor and no one else since she suggested that I go to one last ortho for a visit. I knew I was making the right decision however and my gut instincts just told me to stick w/ Elvebak and his staff haha. So pretty much three days ago (6/25) was the best day ever for me. I even admit, I do love going for ortho appointments, I think they are actually very interesting and I am considering going into this particular field. I couldn't have asked for a better orthodontist. Of course, braces aren't cheap, but they are worth it, esp from him, he knows what he's doing. Highly recommended, if you disagree, then you have problems.
