Metal Mouth Message Board

24-30 months for me and 6 months in. Hoping to get debraced closer to the 24 month mark!

When I first got my ceramic braces on I had clear ligs and that was a huge mistake! Now I always get silver and nothing seems to ever stain them and they are still not very noticeable.

Insurance took care of $2,000 so my total cost for everything is $3,500 here in California.

The only issue I've had is having clear ligs is the worst. The smoke stains them quick. Other than that I have had no issues.

24 months for me. 4 months in.

1. Where are you located? San Jose, California
2. How much are you paying for your braces? $5,800, insurance takes care of $2,000. $3,800 in total.
3. What kind of braces do you have? Ceramic top and bottom
4. What is your estimated time in braces? 24-30 months

I had this same thing happen. During the first few days I had waves of nausea on and off. I thought maybe it was my body's reaction to having something foreign in my mouth.

Just got mine last week at 27 :)
