Metal Mouth Message Board

I am not a specialist either, even if I read A LOT of information about all this stuff, but I see 2 problems in here: 1. I don't thing the expander is the one to use of alignment. Again, I am not a specialist, but teeth need to be moved in angles and not just be pushed forward ... As some already sa...

Thank you again for the support. can't wait for tomorrow :) Well .. in Romania we have more and more people into braces. The thing is that most of the people in my country FEAR the dentist. I was afraid a lot after getting some root treatment with NO anesthesia. Don't ask me why? Maybe because we we...

I have started posting here since last night, but forgot to introduce myself ... Sorry for being such a misbehaved girl :D I am Ramona. I call myself dojo in 200+ forums and sites. I am a radio Dj and also worked as a web designer for 5 years. It started as a hobby, now I have my very small design f...

I already posted there too :) So sorry to hear about this .. well .. I don't know either if I am in the June group or not. Anyway .. in the end it's not such a huge problem. Just enjoy the life before the braces as I am already doing. I feel better and even more beautiful, even if I didn't start ali...

My treatment is 3500 Euros (damon braces in the first months then Invisalign for the rest of the treatment). 20 months at least in the treatment

Sorry to hear about this :( .. it looks like there are some serious prices in your country too ... I think I had 2-3 root canals in my life since I had bad teeth. And when I was a kid we had some HORRIBLE dentists. They would tell you to "just hang on, we're almost ready" instead of giving...

I can feel your pain, but don't worry .. it does take some time for all the preparation, but then you'll be in braces and before you get used to them you'll lose them and be "normal" again. :) I started talking to my doctor about the possibility of getting braces in february when we met. H...

You have some superb teeth, that's for sure. It was worth it indeed. Awesome smile

Oh my god that was indeed very hard .. so sorry to hear about this :( Still .. there is still something I don't understand .. if it did hurt why didn't they use any anesthesia? I would kill my doctor if I had to go through 1 percent of the pain you had to endure. I think they should have stopped at ...

Thank you both for the great tips and the support. :) Yes, I do have a nice relationship with my orthodontist and I already made him sick and tired of all my questions :D .. I tend to read a lot about anything I am facing and I have a lot of "educated" questions. The good thing is that he ...

Female, 28, Romania (somewhere in Europe). Am getting braces in few days (Damon at first, Invisalign afterwards)... 20 months time treatment

I hope I'll get mine ASAP too. I had all my cavities solved, the extractions done and I am feeling OK. The day after tomorrow I have an appointment with my orthodontist and I hope I'll either find out when the braces are put or I even have them placed. Weird enough .. can't wait :roll: So .. if all ...

That looks amazing. I am not a specialist, even if I read a lot about all this stuff, but that seems like a great progress. I hope I'll be able to show such progress too

I am 28 and people told me I am crazy to do this since I should have put the braces when I was a kid. Well I couldn't afford that back then .. now I can. I did like my doc's answer to this though: "You can wear braces a 90 if you still have your teeth" :lol: .... so I think that it's OK. A...

I am 28, a woman and also scared about all this. I am sure people will be OK with this .. I found my coleagues to be quite nice about my issues and supportive ... it will all pass ...

Best of luck with the treatment .. let's hope in some months time we can brag with an awesome smile
