I am taking my braces off tomorrow because my 15s cruise leaves saturday. my orthodontist said my teeth were ready to remove the braces ad asked me to wear some rubber bands to keep the midline(huh..?). But i have noticed that my teeth have moved and now the top oes lie perfectly on the bottoms ones, not slightly in front like I see most people have them. is that ok? will he still be able to take the braces off or will we have to wait till they go slightly over?

I highly doubt your getting your braces off (sorry!) They really should not take them off. your top teeth are supposed to be slightly over the bottom ones. This really is a big deal. Your teeth really need to meet and "bite" up against each other in a certain way.
call them and tell them whats going on and see what they say and what they can do to get them off soon

They aren't bad, but I'd certainly go ahead and have the vet float her teeth to check for loose or impacted caps. Young horses should have their teeth checked twice a year to make sure they don't get impacted caps and to keep their mouth well balanced and healthy. I was shocked how bad my 3 year old's teeth were. He had 2 impacted caps and was already forming a wave.

wen ur top teeth are slightly in front of ur bottom teeth thats called an overbite...there is nothin wrong with that but it is better for ur top teeth to be directly on tp of ur bottom teeth..so yeah...let ur dentist take them off cuz u will have perfect teeth =-)

HELLO,
THIS IS KNOWN AS EDGE-TO-EDGE ALIGNMENT.
MOST PEOPLE HAVE A SLIGHT OVERBITE THAT ENABLES THEM TO EASILY BITE INTO SOMETHING THIN LIKE A LETTUCE LEAF OR GENTLY PULL OUT STAPLES OR OTHER SMALL OBJECTS WITH THEIR TEETH.
HAVING YOUR SITUATION IS NOT BAD, BUT IF YOU HAD AN OPEN BITE THIS WOULD BE TERRIBLE. YOUR TEETH WOULD NEVER TOUCH.

Your best bet is to call your ortho and tell him about your problems.
