Metal Mouth Message Board

Yuppers, I had quite a few friends tell me "why did u get braces?", but you can tell from my pics that i had a lil spacing up top and crowding at the bottom. I believe people have their own bad smile meter and my smile didnt cross the "need braces" line. I feel its something that...

The month of August and some pics. On Aug. 8th I have my bottom right K-9 bracketed and to keep me from biting it off they made an adhesive mound on my back teeth (one mound each side). I think the works great 'cause I noticed I have a habit of clinching my teeth for no reason. 8/2007 http://i157.ph...

Had an adjustment made on 5/2/07, it looks like my peg tooth is on the move and my lowers are less crowed :D http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t74/timsco2/th_Crook.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t74/timsco2/th_3-1.jpg 5/4/07 http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t74/timsco2/th_lower.jpg http:/...

Well, here are some pics 1 week after the complete wiring of all my teeth. I think the teeth on the bottom are startin to move a bit and you can see the tooth located on right side of my smile pic is still out of line, but its only been a week. :lol: http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t74/timsco2/ne...

Well I had my temp wire removed and replaced with a wire that connects all my teeth. When do these power chains come into play, is that toward the home stretch? A lil discomfort nothing major, I dont need to take any pain killers which is cool. I got back toward the end of May.

Welcome Violet, If you dont mind me saying, your smile is going to be beautiful. Just from looking at your pics now you gum line is perfect and all your teeth well formed. I say well formed 'cause I have a peg tooth that may require some bonding I cant wait to see your progress pics

Well I go back on 4/10/07 to get all my everything wired, right now I just have a temp wire in connecting the front six teeth of the top and bottom.

I got braced on 3/9/07, so far so good, just kinda hard chewin' without the complete use of my back teeth. She didnt wire my whole mouth, I go back 4/10/07 I guess to get fully wired. http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t74/timsco2/th_2-1.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t74/timsco2/th_1-1.jpg
