If anything, I just remember feeling relief that I finally got them taken off haha. They will look fine if you've been taking care of them, but they will feel VERY weird...they basically feel very slimy and it will feel like you have a lot of room in your mouth. Nothing to worry about at all, I promise :) goodluck, Jess. [ Hitoast's advice column | Ask Hitoast A Question ]
