Don't take them off yourself, they use a special glue, which reacts to equipment they have to put them on and off. Taking them off with out this could result ins taking off the surface of your teeth, or even cracking them completely. There is no way you can take them off without major pain or damage. If the dentist in your area is too expensive try surrounding areas. If not, you are probably liable for compensation, what with your dentist being arrested. But please, do not remove them yourself!

please dont remove them yourself. You will destroy your new teeth. It will cause great pain to you because you dont have the proper equipment to remove them. Even if you did successfully remove them you would be left with cement stuck to your teeth ( not fun) I would recommend seeinga dentist. Tell them your situation. If they dont understand what your going through look up a dentist that may do it at no cost.

i does no longer assume them taking them off early. i have had my braces on for 3 years now and they have appeared completely instantly for 2 years. this is no longer all about the teeth, they ought to make particular your chew is authentic and many different issues. fortuitously, after 3 years i'm getting mine off in 19 days :)

THE BEST THING TO DO IS TO SEE A DENTIST, HOWEVER, IS THAT'S NOT FINANCIALLY POSSIBLE, BRACES BE REMOVED USING CURVED NEEDLE-NOSE PLIERS BY GRIPPING THEM TIGHT AND TWISTING. THE COST SEEMS TO BE TOO EXPENSIVE@ $400. THE FORCE USED TO REMOVE THEM MUST BE A TWISTING FORCE RATHER THAN JUST PULLING. THE CEMENT USED TO APPLY THEM IS STRONG.

Dont remove 'em urself cause it will destroy the enamel. If your teeth are important to you, just pay to get them off. Although your situation does suck...
