Hi Guys! Thanks for all of your advice (and complements) I made an appointment with another orthodontist in my area to get a second opinion and a dentist appointment to discuss the veneers, or possibly bonding if I'm able to do that instead. The veneers are $1,100 each, and the ortho said I would ne...

Okay fellow archwired friends! I need some advice: During my adjustment yesterday, I was told that my braces will be removed in October (12 months instead of the origional 20). At this moment, I have a huuuuge overbite with my top teeth resting on my lower lip. When I asked him if this would be fixe...

And even with this, the bottom edges of the teeth still curve back further than the teeth surrounding them. Its hard to see in the images because I cant ...

Yesterday was my latest ortho appointment..and it was interesting! It started with sanding between my teeth with a drill disk. I know it's unlikely, but all I could think about was that disk shooting out and splitting my lip. After a very long and upclose face to face with the doctor (I almost thoug...

Progress!

Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've posted, and things are going well! I've had my braces about six months now, with three adjustments. Here is my progress so far: Here's a reminder of what they looked like before braces: http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q32/heathermarie616_photo/rollar%2...

Haha, you're right Necra! Maybe I should reconsider the Ugly Betty costume! I laughed at how many "Where can I get fake braces for halloween?" posts that I saw online! I was thinking about braces on vampires the other night. I was watching Tru Blood with my husband and I asked him what hap...

Hi Emms! Congrats on your braces, and thanks for posting on my thread, my teeth do feel much better now! I've also been noticing that my teeth look yellow. I read somewhere on this site that the clear "vitamin gel" they spread all over your teeth before gluing on the brackets gradually tur...

Because I love Halloween, I’ve been trying to think of some fun Halloween costumes that involve braces, here are some ideas: Cheese grater 1. Find a box that fits over your body, flip it over and cut three holes: one on the top for your head, and tone on each side for your arms 2. Find a piece of ...

Sooooo....I've been in braces for almost a week now, and it is feels AWESOME! No, I'm lying. But I do think I can see movement! I think I've developed braces-induced Turrets. I've kept my top teeth from hitting my lower braces by holding my mouth slightly open (Picture a cat that smells something it...

Anyway, I loved your burrito story and I wish I had read it sooner! I cant wait to see your pics!
