Re: Metal braces soon and starting new job...
Agreed. No one will notice you have them or comment on them. No one will notice when you get them removed. Well, they may notice each time, but may not say anything. I say get them, and don't worry. I got mine when I was 51. They were metal and I picked the brightest color ties. I never shied away f...

Re: 51 - Braces first time.
I see that your orthodontics decided to put bands around your molars. They look different from other bands -they seem to overlap the top of your teeth instead of just the sides. Are these bands or crowns? Also you no longer have your rear gold crown. Was this removed for orthodontic reasons or other...

Re: Braces and weight training.
I noticed the same things. I started to wear one a cheaper mouth guard that I can reshape or throw away and buy a new one cheaply. Also addressed my concerns with bitting down and mismatched teeth.

There's a few video about the dad talking about his braces and treatment, and a detailed one of him getting his adjustment. Other cute family videos as well.

Re: Does Gum level readjust?
My crowns were also slightly raised and the gums seemed to adjust with them. I was also concerned with this issue as one of those crowns was a bicuspid and the line would have been visable whenI talked or smiled.

Re: Post-op tips
Hyr,
Your teeth look great! When do the braces come off. Do you have more time for final adjustments/straightening?

Re: Oldfart Orthodontic Diary
Why did you decide to close the gap at the missing molar, instead of both braces and an implant or bridge. Will you have the space closed, and an implant.

Re: Oldfart Orthodontic Diary
Wow! that's some impressive dental work! Looks like my back molars. The first lower left molar, is that a crown or just silver fillings? I had a similar dramatic bend from my first to second molars at all four corners. I really felt the braces at those locations. The bends have gone away over the pa...

Re: Teeth with root canals. More Painful?
I have two root canels with crowns and 3 other crowns. I don't feel a different sensation in those teeth now. However, when I first have my braces put on, I certainly felt the pain in those teeth from the spaces. My ortho banded all my crowns which include 2 bicuspids and 3 molars. I might have been...

Re: Braceface Greeting Etiquette
I ran into a worker at Home Depot with braces the other day. Young guy in mid 20's. I asked him how his braces were working out for him. We talked about braces for about 10 minutes - exchanging stories. He was more than happy to talk about his treatment. It was good to hear about wearing braces from...

One year aniversary
I just realized that yesterday was my one year aniversary of wearing braces. I celebrated by looking at some pictures of my teeth just prior to braces and soon after getting them on. In the past year: I've had all 4 second molar bands removed. I've unfortunately had several 2nd bicuspid bands instal...
