I'm not sure if it's grinding I think it's more clinching

Re: Teeth whitening after having braces removed
I got Zoom. But was kinda disappointed because my teeth were actually a shade that is considered an after result. I did get one shade lighter, but I feel as if I could have done that with at home products. I guess I am saying if your teeth are already fairly white I would stick with at home whiting....

Re: Which electric toothbrush do you have and why did you choose it?
I got a Sonicare Diamond Clean last year, I got it because I had got a Sonicare from my grandma 7+ years before it stopped holding a charge; it still worked fine but I wanted one with more setting options. So I decided since the one I had lasted so long I would stick with Sonicare. I love the many d...

My Bottom isn't as tight as my top
Got my metal off 3 weeks ago. I had my retainers made and got them the next day. I had forgotten when I got my impressions that I was getting one of my bottom teeth fixed, it had a chip on the back side ,I wanted to wait until getting my bracses off because it had broken two times already. I digress...

Re: I think my braces are too low
I did go and have the doc check, she said everything was good, my teeth are tipped back and small so it is probably why I thought it was too low. The COA was the one that but my brackets on, I did check on the Hawaii State board and you are correct in the fact COA's cannot place brakets. How do I br...

Re: I think my braces are too low
Well I have FastBraces so just a regular dentist does mine. Obviously certified on it. But no she did not come to check the techs work. I just for some reason thought it was work only the dentist would do. Also don't you get the wires changed often? All they did for my tops was chafe the rubber band...

I think my braces are too low
I am thinking about calling my doc and going in for her to check the placement of my bottom braces. For some reason the dental tech put on the first 6 of the bottom of my FastBraces. But the brackets are almost touching my gum line. It's weird, and it's frustrating. I have a 2 yr old and I don't alw...
