Metal Mouth Message Board

And by slandering I meant slobbering, my phone changed what I typed. Woops!

Hi everyone, I go back to the dentist on Wednesday to have my retainer fitted then im done! So excited, it took about 16 weeks in total. I cleaned mine the same as holub, brushed it with a toothbrush and toothpaste and I bought retainer brite from my dentist, it was £10 for a box which has lasted me...

Thanks nikki, I'm Really pleased just one wee tooth which is not perfect yet. It's amazing what they can do in such a small amount of time. I got mine for £995 but it was a groupon deal I got so that was quite lucky. I did ask how much they were without the deal and she said up to £1800 so it sounds...

Hello, awww that's horrible for u. My aligner never cut my gums or tongue but I have heard the wax helps with that. Your speech will improve although it probably won't completely go away, people In work say they don't notice it much anymore (I'm 12 weeks in) but I can still hear it. The pain will su...

Thats great, I'm glad your having such an easy time! I didn't need the expander first (must have a big enough mouth to start with lol). But iv heard people who have it normally don't need the actual aligned for quite as long? So that's good. Can't figure out how to put pics on here so I'll email the...

Hi Nikki, there Is some way of posting the pics on here. Not sure how though, if not I'll email them. Hi Rolotree. A retainer is worn after the brace to hold your teeth in position. You can have either a thin metal wire permanently bonded to the back of your teeth or a plastic gumshield which you ne...

I'd say I probably started to see a bit of movement at the 2 week stage but I could feel a tiny difference when running my tongue along my teeth after about a week. I think it all just depends on how quick your teeth move. Do u think you'll manage to wear it 20hrs a day? Iv tried to stick to that as...

Hello...what clinic in Glasgow are u going to? I'm also in Glasgow at kalyani dental lounge. I have my 11 week appointment tonight and hopefully will be done soon. The pain when putting in and taking the aligner out definately goes away. I was in agony for a few days then it just stopped (I actually...

Just giving an update...had my 9 week check up on wed and the dentist says iv not got long to go now. Im at the stage now where I can't wait to be done. I'm fed up having the aligner in my mouth and although my speech is a lot better than it was to start with, it's still not sounding normal which is...

Hi crooked teeth, im only 7 weeks in but I know if I get the clear aligner at the end I'll need to pay extra too :( Hi Lisa, that's great. I think my case sounds very similar to yours. I'm 7 weeks in and can see a huge difference, hopefully I'll be done at 10 weeks too but iv got one tooth that need...

Hello, I had to have 4 of the little lumps (I think they are called composites) 2 behind my front teeth and 2 in front of the teeth next to my front teeth. I was very paranoid about them too but have been to a few nights out now without my aligner and people don't notice. Even when I point them out ...

Hello just a quick update. I will have had my Inman aligned 4 weeks timorrow and can't believe the change in my teeth already. They aren't actually too far off the end position although there is one annoying tooth that needs to be rotated but is also moving very slowly. Very pleased so far!! Hope it...

Iv had a bit of a problem this morning. Wonder if anyone else has any answers...on the THIS COMPANY DOES NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO ADVERTISE ON THIS WEBSITE. PLEASE REPORT TO ADMINISTRATOR. at the front there's a white wire which runs through the middle of it...iv never actually noticed it before but t...

Also I got the groupon deal (I'm in Glasgow though) and it cost me £995. This included the consultation, Inman aligner brace, regular dental visits and filing of teeth and the retainer at the end. An expander would have cost extra but I didn't need it, she said the cost wasn't much though. I also ha...

Hi totally twisted, my dentist has told me different. She says to try and wear it for 20 hours a day, apparently there's no benefit to wearing it for longer than 20 Hrs and it can be bad for the roots of the teeth if done too often. She also says if I don't manage the twenty hours on a one off occas...
