Metal Mouth Message Board

thanks for looking out for us!

I had to be on the waiting list for 3 YEARS. After 3 years i went to my dentist and asked him WHEN i would be getting my braces. He wrote another referral letter and MONTHS after, I got an appointment at the orthodontists for impressions etc. Another 3 months later I got my braces. Apparently I had ...

Wow! your teeth have made excellent progress!

Oh yeah I dont know anything about the yellowing of the teeth though... sorry..

Loose teeth is excellent news! It means your teeth are moving and the bone structure is breaking down which is why your teeth feel loose. Don't worry about it... it's a good sign!

none at all yet!

none at all yet!

Don't worry about it! I had 4 extractions too and it was over in no time. The injections aren't too bad but u might drool on yourself like me because your mouth will go numb! After rinse with salty water to heal up the extraction spots. Good luck!

My ortho's trying to close my 4 extraction gaps with springs.

I just got some elastics on this Tuesday along with springs. The elastics were killing me too. But a painkiller never fails to kill pain lol.

Wow! uve made excellent progress through those 7 months!

Im glad im under 18!

Chris u make an intresting point. The elastics are to fix my midline and it is only a fraction off. So maybe he doesn't want to over correct it like u said! thanks!

Thanks Nahky I will ask.

I've got elastics from the 6 month mark!
