Metal Mouth Message Board

I can't believe it's been 5 months since my last update!!! Work has been insane :shock: At the company gift exchange, my boss gave me candycanes and gum :gavel: My braces are now to come off in May instead of February (I screwup my ticker trying to change the date) :oops: The issue now is to make my...

Hi Guys, Thanks for all the encouragement!!! Part of me does miss the gap :GapToothed: I used to have a tea kettle whistle that would drive my mom crazy!!!!. I didn't realize how much the gap had grown until I pulled out an entire tomato slice from my burger instead of the bite. :oops: (What a great...

Hey kk, No new adventures to report; I just keep smiling more. Almost 6 months. Wow!!! I'm still wearing elastics to correct the side view of my mouth but those photos are harder to take. Here's my photo for July. http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a84/Sandy-Cheeks-/JULY2006.jpg For shock value I've a...

Hi Guys,

Thanks everybody for your writing me!!! kk, Yeah, that photo is more painful than my teeth. A friend had done the first but IIII got to do that second one one my own. It took forever to find the Picture Editor Program. I've been cropping it down but it keeps showing the original. :x I'll learning so...

I've FINALLY been braced!!! :D I've spent most of the weekend sleeping off this newfound heaviness (from lack of food?). The brackets were coloured coded for pl...

Hi Guys, Thanks for your replies!!!! :D I glad that there's nothing to worry about! I'll be more confident and careful while. Everything should go "swimmingly" :lol: KK "congrats on getting active ... I just wish you could motivate me! " The secret is to "be Baywatch Bionic&...

Hi Guys, I've missed y'all so much!!!! I've been searching the forum for topics on exercise, fitness, running, jogging and not finding much. I guess all the upkeep on our dental work keeps us indoors! :) I'll be braced on Feb 17 :D and I've got several concerns /questions about all sort of activitie...

Oops duplicate posting.

Hi Guys, I haven't posted for a while Here's a summary of my adventure. The procedure went very well. Proabably great, I don't have teeth pulled often enough to rate on a scale of 1-10. When I got there on Thursday, they let me take anti-nausea pills then gave me the post-op prescriptions to fill wh...

Hi Guys, Thanks for all your responses!! It's really helping me make a better decision about this. I've been doing ALOT of reading on the archwire website and I'm now leaning torward to choosing rainbow ligatures. My concern was that a wire across the gap would catch pasta like towels on a clothesli...

Hi Ebonygurl00 & jennielee81

Thank you for your input. It's really helping me out. My family thinks that the braces/invisilign isn't a big issue. But it's not their mouth, eh?

Hi There, I've spent a lot of time searching for similar posts but have found none. Here goes: I'm 35 years old and I have a 6mm gap between my two front teeth. I would like braces but I'm sure if the archwire would cause difficulty. My dentist would like to use invisalign- I would be his first pati...
