I recommend a professional removing your braces, but that is not always an option. I just removed my braces today and I did it by taking scissors and putting the single blade between my tooth and the brace. With a little leverage they popped right off. I don't know how bad it is for you but that is how I did it. My biggest problem now is getting the gunk off my teeth but it feels so good to have them off.

∙ 13y agoBraces are removed with special pliers that break the bond of the cement between the bracket and the tooth. Ceramic brackets are more difficult to remove than metal ones because they are more rigid. The squeezing pressure or compression of the plier edges pops the brackets off in a fraction of a second.
This should only be done by a dental professional as done incorrectly, the enamel of the teeth could be damaged.

∙ 14y agoREALLY NOT RECOMMENDED because this is EXTREMELY painful and can actually damage the surface of the teeth, but in an emergency the wires can be cut with a pair of wire sidecuts, then pulled through the braces. The actual braces can be pried off with a butter knife. Unfortunately you probably don't have access to any solvents that will degrade the adhesive holding them on that are safe to put in you mouth, and this is where the EXTREMELY PAINFUL and MAY DAMAGE YOUR TEETH part comes in. All in all, if you're just tired of wearing them go into your orthodontist's office and tell them you want them off now, ready or not.
