Metal Mouth Message Board

lol they dont bother me but I see alot of people on here that we started the same time and they have theirs off! Everybody is different though! i remember when i first got mine! i was so excited to have straight teeth! i hope your journey goes good!

Are these braces ever going to come off!!!! LOL

Yes I notice sometimes after adjustments my teeth get loose... I constantly moved my tongue into them just to feel them move when they are like this. I dont think they will fall out..lol

Looks really good!!

Has anyone ever experienced neck pain with braces?? I have been having the worst tightness in my neck that has been lasting for about 2 months! Let me know.

Yes this is possible. More than likely you had a huge tartar/plague buildup that pushed the gums down. Eventually they will move back in place. Dont sweat it!

Hi Seriousthinker!! I'm in the same boat as you. My front teeth are uneven and I could not tell untell i got my braces. I'm a little bit insecure about that right now! But your teeth are looking really good!!! thanks fo sharing

The week before I got my braces I was eating like crazy... Was so scared I was going to miss out on my favorite foods. After the pain of week one, I'm was able to eat just about anything I want. Although my only complaint is biting into something like a burger or sandwich is differcult and almost im...

Also about the coworker part, I've had mine for 2 months now and alot of people havent even noticed them. So I wouldnt worry about that either. And if they do then let it be. I would though go ahead and tell the ones you work the closest to.

Hi! I wouldn't worry so much about how you are going to look. Eventually you will get use to them and want even notice them. And there is really nothing unattractive about modern day braces! It will be well worth it on down the road! Good luck!

Luckily after a few days or maybe a full week your bite will work itself out. I had the worse time with my molar bands and I was so tempted to go back to the orthro and have those suckers taken off!!! That was my only complaint esp the part of the wire digging into my cheeks and my tongue being raw....

I've noticed that my front teeth are not aligned as straight as they were before I got braces about 6 wks ago..... I'm not sure why but my left front tooth has moved a lil bit out more than my right front tooth. Has anyone ever had this issue and is this normal?

Yep it does suck..... I tried the imagehack thing as well.... A NO GO!!

Hi just going through some post and noticed your pics!! Your teeth are going to be so beautiful!! They are already making much improvement..

Ok I've been trying to add an image as my avatar and I keep getting the same message that file needs to be under 6kibs...... It seems like no matter how small I make it, I get this message. Can someone please help me out or give me some tips about this!! Has this happened to anyone else?
