Metal Mouth Message Board

Chelsea, How long did it take for you to start feeling better after the extractions? It has been a week for me and I am still feeling pain in my jaw. Also, now that I have my wire back in, my teeth are starting to hurt! I felt a little better reading your post, thanks:) I have some gaps that make me...

They do sometimes extract healthy adult teeth if necessary.

I had my extractions done after my braces were already on. Orthodonist wanted me to do it right away. I had my braces on for about a month and a half when I had my teeth pulled. Took time to set an appointment with an oral surgeon and then set the date for the surgery. I had three wisdom teeth pulle...

I have ceramic on top and metal on bottom. I really prefer the ceramic. I think they look better and feel better.

Happy to hear that I'm not the only person that drools!!! I drool at night and during the day!

I have my front braces on, getting my molar bands and back braces tomorrow. But, my wisdom teeth and 4 baby teeth won't be pulled until 9/10. Anyone else get braces and then teeth extracted?

I drink whatever I want. I think the only warning that I got was about drinking too much soda. I still drink soda but try not to drink too much and brush my teeth often.

I just got braces and I have four baby teeth. I go to my consultation with the oral surgeon next week. I'm pretty sure they are gonna pull them all at one time. Plus, I am getting my wisdom teeth removed!
