Metal Mouth Message Board

Hello everyone and thank you all so much for your kind comments. Sorry, I have been gone for a while, because my son brought some kind of terrible cold home. In fact I think we had (and I still have) the flu. I just can't seem to get better! I thought I was getting better 3 days in and then it got w...

Hi Brace Buddy!! Can you believe it's been a month already? I remember when we were counting the hours LOL :lol: Your braces look so cute on you! And yes, go by the changes you feel versus what you see, since they are neatly side by side it's probably hard to tell. Maybe try the upper arch angle to ...

The teeth that aren't covered by the RPE are definitely much more in line compared to your first picture. You are gonna have a perfect arch! I too think that you have had some fantastic progress for such a (relatively) short time of being braced. I hope you can get the RPE off sooner than expected. ...

Aww THANKS KK!!!

i'm going to live it up! i'm paying for them, i'm going to enjoy them!

I totally agree!!!

PS: Congrats on getting braced soon!

Thanks Denise and KK ...you two noticed stuff I didn't even notice! That's always neat =) Things are really happening now I think. I am so very excited, I think more now than I ever was :-* jjames yes I will have to see how it turns out overall before I mess around with my gums. Just right now it lo...

This is EASTER!!! (My assistant's version of an Easter basket...I think she had too much fun with me )

I was looking in the mirror today noticing how wide my arch is getting. I still have a long ways to go to get my centrals in line. My mouth is going to be HUGE when I'm done. I have such big teeth. I can hardly wait. I've always thought a big smile was cool. My teeth feel very weird now that the bi...

I have been rather aggrivated with my new band in the back because the assistant didn't push down the little things that poke out (the metal pieces on the inside of the band). I had to go back because it was hurting my tongue and the OTHER assistant said that whoever put my band on was supposed to ...

Hi shell, it's so nice to see you back! I think I am getting used to the food. Maybe too used to it? I don't run to the bathroom 5 seconds after I eat now and I am not sure if that's a good thing :lol: I still brush about 4 times a day but I think I need to be better about keeping my teeth clean aga...

Oh MAN I am so jealous! I haven't gone down a slope as fast as can be in....11 years http://bestsmileys.com/crying/2.gif Those were the good times on Austrian slopes (where I grew up), where everyone knew how to ski! Now in Florida, naturally noone has even gone down a bunny hill yet :( Thanks for p...

Hi Shell, what's new? Haven't heard from you in a while. Hope your laptop hasn't left you hanging again. Has your gap closed?

What perfect arches, Tim! Everytime I see every single tooth this perfectly lined up in a perfect U shape I am amazed. Your teeth look great!!

I think that's great news actually that you will get your mid-line worked on! I would like to start that process for me like yesterday! I'm jealous

my ultimate favourite was from my orthodontist once she put my braces on- she moved the chair back upright, took off her gloves and said: "Congratulations on receiving your very first 'Black-and-Decker-Peck_r-Wrecker!" http://bestsmileys.com/lol/13.gif ok that is FUNNY! Michael your blog ...
