Re: Permanent retainer came unglued

I would definitely not get it removed after only six months, I've been told that ideally it should stay there as long as possible because the teeth can start to move as soon as it's gone. Your clear retainers probably help but then you would have to wear them every night for a very long time. Do you...

midlines after surgery.

i'm very curious about one thing. a lot of people says that right after surgery their midlines where off but that it was fixed with braces/elastics. what i don't get about this is that i thought that they lined up the teeth in the lower jaw with the midline of the lower jaw and the teeth in the uppe...

I'm so very sad, the outcome of my surgery isn't AT ALL as expected. I had double jaw surgery when I was younger to correct an underbite, and open bite and an asymmetry (it was quite a mess). When the swelling started to go down I saw that something must be wrong, the midline of my upper teeth did n...
