Re: Harmony Lingual braces

I have recently had harmony braces fitted, top and bottom. Is it correct that there is only 4 wires total?

I just had AOO surgery, so my wires will be changed every 3 weeks. If the above is true, I will be on my last wire in no time!

Would love to hear experiences with the harmony system...

Wilckodontics and harmony lingual braces

Several months down the track... Expander came out a while back, wore a retainer until my braces were ready. Had my top braces on 2 Mondays ago. I ended up with HARMONY braces as my ortho thinks they are the best out at the moment. Getting them on wasn't bad, except for the thing they use to keep yo...

Re: IBRACES @ 34/35 years old...

Things are so much better with the expander already. I managed to chew food yesterday! My teeth have been a bit too sensitive until now, so it was nice to have a (soft) bread roll for lunch, although it still got stuck all over my appliance. I turned the expander on friday evening - I actually have ...

Re: An orthodontist who actually does Lingual Braces in Sydney?!

Have you contacted Full Face Orthodontics? They have 4 clinics in Sydney and I will be getting my I-Braces with them.

I believe a lingual specialist visits my clinic twice a week.

Hope that helps :)

Re: IBRACES @ 34/35 years old...

Spacers went in on Tuesday, and yesterday I got my expander in! So happy that things are finally happening, but it will be a long journey I know. So far really struggling to eat and even drink with the expander in. It feels so huge in my mouth, and it's just really hard to swallow. Getting it put in...

Re: IBRACES @ 34/35 years old... EXPANDER

So, I have been frustrated this week... I was supposed to get my expander fitted two weeks ago, but there was a delay with its arrival, and no-one had called me to follow up. Also, it didn't seem that anyone was going to touch base with me after my periodontist appointment (he would have sent a repo...

Re: IBRACES @ 34/35 years old... PAOO AOO

The Periodontist I was due to see in a few weeks had a cancellation this week, so I managed to get an appt much sooner. I didn't think I would consider AOO for a second, but figured I'd go along for the consultation anyway, and see what he had to say. He was an awesome doctor, spent ages explaining ...

IBRACES @ 34/35 years old...

Hi everyone, I decided a little while ago that I was finally going to fix the 'one crooked tooth' I have, that has always bothered me. I didn't think it looked that bad in person, but in photos, it often looked like I was missing a tooth. Anyway... long story short, when I went to talk to a dentist ...
