Metal Mouth Message Board

I know I don't post a lot but over the course of my treatment I've come to read and to learn.In conclusion...lol

I get them off on Tuesday!!!! The 23rd! :]]] i'm 18!
I got them on when i was...*does some math* 15 yeaaabuddy.

Yea I noticed that if u chew gum the pain goes away..
I chew gum!
I couldnt live without it!

They might have to put a Nance on u...thats wat i have..though the last time i went she realized that my back molars were moving forward.. <_< But i got the second to last molars extracted..so maybe thats why..bc they didnt have enough strength to stay back..but its all good now. hope they fix that!...

...Dont worry its normal in some cases...like mine..
I came in with a like 5mm overbite...nd i had a 7mm overbite after awhile nd my ma got PISSED! but now im even lower like 3mm.! So yea dont worry they will fix it! lol

I have ceramics on top nd metal on bottom.
I have been told that it all depends on ur ortho how long you keep em on.
Just bc u have metals does not mean that ur treatment time will be less than if you had metal.....

I had pictures yesterday..I always smile with my teeth showing!!

I'm allergic to Nickle nd my ortho put clear ceramics on top nd metal on bottom nd no irritation has happened! I've had em for a yr!

Lets just say i go swimming at night...
lmao haha thats gross but it happens! I guess cause we cant close our mouths right nd wat not!

This kinda has to do with this..lol So my ligs had been getting pretty..funky...so our toothpaste ran out nd we bought some more but this time we bought Ultra brite Advanced Whitening.. So i used it nd brushed going around..then finally did the spitting nd wat not..lol nd..BOOM!! my ligs were clear ...

I have a Nance!
I got used to it pretty quick!
Mine's being used to keep my back molars from moving forward while they move my teeth back! yaya!
I dont get food stuck in mine though...
but i do floss it just in case!

Congrats on the progress!
...nd I just remembered that on the 5th of this month was my one yr anniversary...haha i totally forgot!

It freaks me out to talk about it but when I had extractions the guy had to use a knife to help it get out...nd while it was healing there was a flap of gum..nd i could see my bone...
.... I didnt like it......i get freaked out by stuff like that..

I have all ceramics on the top except for the molar bands.

Even though I was told not too...(I do everything nd eat everything that im not supposed to ne ways..haha)

BIG RED!!
Im chewing it right now....YAYA!
