Metal Mouth Message Board

hahaha Thanks Linda! Its all back to normal again now, didn't last too long and certainly wasn't unbearable! They seem to have moved a lot in the last week...maybe just my imagination though. At the half year mark almost I think :) Time just flies. Very happy with the results though. **edited to add...

OWWWWWWWWW Which one of you rang my ortho and told him that I have been saying how painless it is?!?!? Today was my fourth adjustment (I think...) and we changed the archwire and MAN does it hurt! Ahh the memories. Am back on the soup and icecream for a while I think! Had a couple of painkillers tho...

Thanks! I am so pleased with my results! I have had a few adjustments and only that first one hurt. TBH adjustments don't hurt one little bit, and I don't even have any pain that others have described in the next couple of days either. I can eat everything that I did prebraces, (just curse more thin...

Well hello everyone! Long time, no post! I thought it was that I updated, I have had some pretty amazing results in 5 short months! Enough chit chat, let the results speak for themselves! http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/LoopyLoo222/teeth3.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/LoopyLoo222...

I met with my cousin for the first time since 'installation' about two months after having braces and we were chatting for about an hour before I said something about my next appointment and she asked for what, and I had to POINT OUT my braces lol I have full metals and bright teal ligs, its not lik...

I SO remember how you feel! (3 months later, that is!)

Hang in there, it does hurt this much for a lot of people, but it's not long til they are out.

I took panadol and nurofen together and that helped a lot.

GL!

I had 7 teeth out at once, and I was fine.

Two of my wisdom teeth became infected, which was HORRIBLE, but the actual extractions and the next couple of days were great. You have to recover from extractions anyway, so why not do it all at once? LOL

Hi Steve!

Was wondering how you were doing.

GL with the next two appointments, do let us know!

Wow! Looking good!

LMAO They didn't even steal it and rehost it, if you click the properties it is just hotlinked from the other forum!

Oh deary me, how very odd.

I waited two weeks between extractions and braces. I thought the same thing as you (I too am 29!) but honestly it flies. I spent most of the time recovering from the extractions anyway, so it worked out just right.

I like gaps in front teeth too! I don't think I would go so far as to have one left in, but I like the look of them for sure!

Sorry, off topic lol. I would definitely bring it up with the ortho. Who knows, it may even close up before naked day anyway!

GL!

WOW that is pretty impressive movement!

Congratulations!

Thank you so much Jennilee!

I am patient enough to wait, I just didn't want to sit like a dope and wait for it to move when they aren't going to! LOL

Well, that is a load off. One down, hopefully only three to go

Thanks again!
