Metal Mouth Message Board

I hope I don't get them because, I hear u get cavities pretty easy. Also anyone know why I have no brackets on my two back molar? I don't have wisdom teeth.

I was wondering why some people have metal bands on their Molars and some don't? I don't have them and was also wondering if they give it to you later in the treatment.

I also do the threading, but the unwaxed floss is harder to floss with then the waxed that's why I wanted to know if it was ok to just go to waxed instead of unwaxed.

Thanks! I am sure once I try I'll figure it out -- if I get wired braces, that is.

Flossing is terrible with braces, it takes a lot of time and I only have my top in. I'm sure I'll get better.

Anyone??

Maybe closer to 5000 not sure

Mine are like 4000 for two years, idk if I do get them off I am paying for it.

thank you for responding, but I am leaning towards getting them removed and I'm going to pay for the removal, because it would'nt be right to do that to them.I do need to talk to them about it though. I hate how I can never make a decision.

My sister has had them for like a month. My friend also pretty recently

Ik what ur saying, about waiting a few weeks, I only really wanted braces because it seem simple. But the maintenance for braces is a lot. I'm in HS and I want to just have fun and not worry about if my teeth will hurt. My friend and sister have braces and I talk to them before I got them, and they ...

I don't why but I just can't see me, sticking with braces I have such a low pain tolerance. I watch/lookup and ton of people who have braces and it really discouraged me and now I wish I never got them.

So if the contract says I have to pay the balance due to get my braces off after like a week of having them. I have to pay the full amount

Thx!!

What does balance due mean

Probably the pain supposedly of rubber bands and tightening. I really have a problem of over thinking things and it gets on my nerves, but I do it anyways. My teeth aren't perfect, but their not terrible.
