Metal Mouth Message Board

Hi VioletJay I checked your story your teeth do look like mine used to! I think it helps to see after pics so you can see what can be achieved. You'll find the front ones straighten up really quickly but you won't notice you'll think they're not moving. Takes pictures at 1 and 2 months and you'll se...

Thank you H.O, I had a look at your pics your teeth look great! I'm sure you'll be pleased
Good luck : )

Well.... I haven't been on here for ages but felt I should finish my story and post after pics. Documenting the whole braces saga was just making it drag so I just got on with it and forgor about them the best that I could. I had them around 2.5 years instead of the estimated 2. I was was never made...

Hi Asabea, How's it going? Don't know if you remember we had our braces fitted around the same time. I'm on the home straight now with 5 months to go.. You must be too? I stopped coming on here because I found documenting everything and thinking about braces all the time was making the whole thing d...

Congratulations on getting braced! 20 times is way excessive. My ortho recently told me that mouth wash causes stains on your teeth too and that you should dilute it with water. Unless you meant 2?

Your braces look nice... they'll look even nicer when your teeth start to straighten out

Hey Emms, Thank you :D Yeah I know that happens to me sometimes, I just try different things until I get it right. Make sure you're near a light if it's a bit dull. I tend not to use the flash because it doesn't come out well. You can set your camera to macro to get a clearer picture. I usually set ...

Thanks petitcanard!

I was pretty shocked when I first took a picture of my 'arch' to find out it was in fact square! so I'm pleased with how it looks now

Aw well done!! I'm so glad it went well

Good luck for tomorrow Emms, I think the point of no return was the extractions for me so you've done the hard part. Just sit in the chair, relax, open your mouth and think of Ireland :wink: Honestly the appointment isn't bad and you'll get used to having them on. The sooner they're on the sooner yo...

Wow your teeth look so nice!! I want my lowers on damn it
