Metal Mouth Message Board

You're right SnowSara. I went to the OrthoCad website and it does say that because of the precise placement of the brackets, the patient requires less office visits. I have been in my braces (tops only at this point) for exactly 2 weeks now, and I can't tell whether there has been any movement. I di...

I just got braced a couple of weeks ago. My next scheduled appointment is 8 weeks later. This seems like a long time to wait after getting braced to see the ortho. Sounds like other people see their ortho more often. Now I'm concerned.

You must have read my mind, I was thinking the same thing. I have just picked up some mouthwash with no alcohol in it. I would like to know what others think.

I can't seem to find some of the mouthwashes everyone is talking about like Pro Health(I have only seen the toothpaste) and ACT. I am in Vancouver Canada and it seems like the selection here for mouthwash is quite limited. I have checked out the 2 major drug stores here and still nothing. Is there a...

Hi, I just got my upper braces put on a couple of days ago. I have 6 Mystiques and the rest metal Innovations. I get my lowers put on in a few months. I have been reading through this forum and I am learning things my ortho never mentioned! I was told about how to brush, how to floss and what foods ...

Hi, I just had my top braces put on a couple of days ago. My ortho used the orthocad system. It really is quick! I had moulds made a month or so ago of my upper and lower teeth. They sent this in to orthocad, and what came back was 2 trays, almost like invislign type trays, with a space in front of ...

My total cost is $7600CDN for six upper ceramics and the rest metal and includes everything from start to finish and after treatment.

Now I'm interested in this toothbrush. How much did you guys pay for it? I live in Canada.

Hi,

I also live in Vancouver. I will be getting Inovations (metal) with the upper 6 in ceramic Mystiques. Cost $7600.

May I ask how much you paid for your braces? I am interested to know what the going rate is in Vancouver.

By the looks of things, I'll be paying the most in Vancouver, Canada.

Hi, I also live in Vancouver. I have never heard of this ortho. I went to Dr Cziraki, also located downtown Vancouver at Seymour and Georgia. She also has an office at Oakridge Mall. She is the only ortho I've seen and I have decided to go with her. My dentist recommended me to her. I think he just ...

Maybe I am paying too much...
