Metal Mouth Message Board

I eat popcorn every night and have not had a problem yet. Only the fact that it sometimes gets stuck in places that are hard to get to.

I just bought the Oral-B Triumph today for 89.84 at Sam's Club. HAvent udes it yet but was reading about the brushes for braces but not sure where you get them at? Or what makes them so special?

I know how you feel about the wire ties I have them on the bottom and then they also put the ligs on top of the wire ties to move things alot faster and believe me they do move. I hope everything goes well for you.....

I have had mine on since November 2, 2005 and my estimated time is 27 months.

The first time I went with teal all on top and bottom. And then the 2nd time I went with coral all top and bottom. Then now I went with light blue dark blue every other one. So far my fav would be the coral because of the pinkisk/orangish color. I say go for the gusto and make a fashion statement it...

I have went with the colors and it seems to not really be that noticeable as from what I thought it would be. My kids even pick out colors for me to try. The plus thing about braces for me is one my teeth are looking good but also the weight lose has given me alot more confidence.

Welcome to the site I am a 26 year old female from Fort Wayne. And I have been braced since November 2 2005 I have 27 months with these things. But after awhile you will forgetr that they are there. Good Luck

Welcome to the site. I have had my braces on since November 2, 2005 and sometimes I wish I didn't go through this but it will be worth it in the long run. My biggest concern was that I am 26 yrs. old and didn't now what others would think. Hope everything goes well for you. How long is your expected...

I have wire ties on all my bottom teeth and I didn't really feel that much pain of course my ortho suggested Advil to help the pain so I have been taking 3 at a time and it seems to really work.

I just had mine done 2 weeks ago and mine were only $80 a tooth had 2 removed but my insurance covers 70% of the bill.

About 1 week ago I thought my band fell off my crown so I went to my ortho to only finf out that my crown had came off and I needed to go to my dentist. Well my dentist permanetly cements my crown back on but as of today it feels like it is going to come off again. My question is what can I do about...

I usually eat just the old Ramen Noodles they are quick and easy. And don't taste bad either.

I called my ortho and they said they could get me in Thursday that was the easrliest. The are just going to put a new band on.

Has anybody had a problem with their band coming off from their crown and with the powerchain on it has pulled it more and more off so I just keep pushing it down and then I get a funny taste in my mouth from it ?And also the same tooth has a piece missing from the temporary crown and my ortho says ...

Mine are costing me $6350.00 for 27 months braces top and bottom insurance does not cover.
