Metal Mouth Message Board

Mine were so sore first few days like really bad but it's been fine since only discomfort now is getting adjusted to new wires but that's more my lips and gums

Nearly 3 months in. Just broke a bracket tonight. It feels strange I have a big blob of wax holding it ATM.

Welcome good luck with your braces

They look great but why did you need them on for 9 years

Ceramic top metal bottom! They are a bit bulkier the ceramic so glad I have the metal at the bottom as that's where my crowding is (for now anyway)

I do this too if I am talking to fast! So no advice but I feel your pain

Hi everyone ! After years and years of hiding my teeth and holding out from laughing too hard, i'm finally getting damon braces in 10 days ! I should have had orthodontic treatment when i was young but my parents didn't give me access to dental treatment unless i was in real pain ... The result is ...

I agree get yourself to an orthodontist first and let them make the referral for you. Sorry I'm in aus so I'm not sure 100% on your system but I went to three orthodontists two didn't charge and one did. Which gave me a a few options before committing. Good luck. Please keep going! You can do it!

Wow! Immediately I posted that I could see your pictures Weird.... Haha u have to do a certain amount of posts before you can view. They are def moving a lot. People who had braces years or decades ago told me it will stop moving after the first week or so but I have had a lot of movement and press...

Two weeks tomorrow no pain when eating but still pressure on diff teeth.

And today

Day 7
