Metal Mouth Message Board

Hey guys, So I still have the wires that are helping to close the gaps after I had my bicuspids removed. (Which I'm not gunna lie is getting annoying because I have brackets on my front 8 teeth that are just sitting there and it doesn't look nice at all) I noticed that when I went to get my bottoms ...

The thin wires go from my back molar and across the gap so my front 4 teeth do not have this wire on them

Hey everyone, So I've had my brackets on for almost 2 months now. I had my bicuspids pulled out last month and then 2 weeks later I had very thin wires attached to help close the gap from my bicuspids. I feel like I should have my archwires on by now.

(I'm a frequent migraine sufferer so I have a high pain tolerance) I am however noticing today that my teeth feel annoying to me. The extraction sites are fine. But my other teeth feel wha...

I just had my bicuspids removed on Friday and I can already tell there's a difference in my face. Its not very drastic but you can tell. My front teeth used to be a lot higher and (as weird as this sounds) I had a huge gap in between my top and bottom teeth that was so big, half of my tongue could g...

I got my braces at 24 and honestly I wish I had done it sooner! I recently got my bicuspids removed and I get my wires put in on the 21st. I can't wait to close these huge gaps!!
