How to ask my dentist to take off my braces?

Treatment Complete?: Your orthodontist will determine when your treatment has been completed. Removing your appliances prematurely is not the best for your overall smile.

Freedom of choice : No health care professional can keep you a hostage. You are an adult (41 years.) just request that they be removed. If the treatment is incomplete and more work needs to be done then you might have to sign a release. Rec.: be patient and your teeth will be beautiful, and you will be happy.
