Metal Mouth Message Board

Looks good!!
You really can't see the top ones, that's really cool!

Hope your mouth is feeling better too.. believe me, I definitely understand the pain of not being able to chew or bite down! Had surgery the other day and still have pain and stitches in the roof of my mouth lol!

Yeah I had that as well, and asked my ortho about it. He said its because the teeth become loose so they move and sometimes pockets of air (or something like that, don't quote me on it lol) are in there and make the noise

I think he is hopeful because I've had really quick progress the entire time.. but he won't give me an estimation date at all because he says everyone is different. Which I respect him for that because I'd rather hear the truth than a lie saying "Oh.. 4 months, tops." and then have that no...

Yes, we definitely plan to do something about it. Unfortunately for me, most places still look at me as "a kid" because I am only 20 and that's why my mom wants to write the letter for me. I will definitely include a copy of my own account of the situation, but we both know that I will be ...

I thought right now would be a good time to write about this, since my Vicodin has worn off and I haven't taken the next dose yet. ;) Friday April 1, 2005 - 11:45am :: I arrived at the Drs office, and quickly remembered why I wasn't happy with the surgeon the first time I met him. I went to a differ...

I'm not sure whether or not anyone would be interested in reading this but I thought it would be nice to do incase I can help someone out.. To start my story, let me first say that from the age of 10 until the age of 19 I had horribly crooked teeth. I have seen some people say (on here) that if they...

Oh my gosh I am so scared! I've been searching on here for other people who've had the surgery already (to remove the canine and expose the adult tooth) and even though it seems like everyone's done well with it I can't help but to still be scared :( I don't know if I'm more worried about the pain a...

Congrats! As the others have said, I'm sure you've gotten the braces on by now so I'm hoping you're doing fine! I'm sure you are Good luck, and welcome to our World

Hi Heath! :) Which teeth do you have to have extracted? I'm getting all 4 of my wisdom done today.. joy! ;) haha Also, the spacers ARE a pain in the butt I will admit that, but in my experience they were only sore for the first day or so. Otherwise, they're more annoying than anything. I felt like I...

Okay, so I'm not quite so new to the braces world. I've had my wonderfully metal mouth for almost two years now.. I am, however, new to the board. I posted sporatically on the very old board Lynn had here but lost motivation to keep up with my braces story. So here I am again.. I'm 20 years old. I'l...
