Nearing end .. keep biting brackets off
I have had my braces for 2 1/2 years. I never broke a bracket until the last couple of months and several times in the last month I wake up and a bracket is hanging. Every bracket I have broke has been in my sleep. Is this common in the last few months of being braced? I'm guessing that I am also gr...

They did it again!
I was flicking through the channels on my lunch break yesterday and happened to see part of the "Tyra" show. She was doing an experiment of sorts to see if attractive people get better treatment then not so attractive people. She had identical twins on the show and made up one to be less t...

Thanks to everyone! The ortho didn't replace the one that I broke off so that is a bit of relief. It has gotten much better the last few days. It feels so much better with the elastic on it. I haven't even had to use any wax. I hardly remember it's there now. I should have learned by now that it alw...

Just when I thought..
the worst was over my ortho has decided I haven't had enough torture devices and put something he called a button on the inside of 2 of my bottom teeth to hook elastics around to pull those teeth out. My tongue is already torn to shreds. I broke one off about 2.5 hours after I left the ortho so that...

I had my top ones removed several years ago. They were erupted and got infected. I had my bottom impacted wisdom teeth removed about 6 months before I got braced. My dentist wanted them out before I got my braces on. He said they could push my bottom teeth together after the braces come off. I think...

My ortho treatment is costing me about $5000 in total and I don't regret a single penny. I suffered from headaches and earaches for years and didn't know what was causing it. I always thought it was my ears, and that I had inheritated the hearing loss problems from my fathers side of the family but ...

I've had the teeth falling out dreams many times over the years. Shortly after I got braced I had the teeth falling out dream but this time the teeth just kind of hung there because of the braces. Another dream was about my ortho. Something had broken and I called the office to get an appointment an...
