Just too many wrong estimates for me to trust this ortho. First I went there for Invisiline and he estimate :cry: that lingual braces were best than Invisiline (later found out he had no experience with it), he estimate :cry: it would take 8 months on the 10 months he had to remove the whole thing a...

At least I have my money refunded as the tra...

One more thing I forgot to mention Ricenin works very well for me. I put some on a cotton ball and rub it agains the sore in my mouth. I do this two or three time during the day and more often than not the sore is gone the next day.

I have braces for one year now and have used wax all this time day and night on all brackets except the ones in the front. I have been all this time aware of my braces every single hour of the day, the discomfo...

He told me that the lingual made my teeth move to the wrong positions and he said - The manufacture assured that it would work!! T...
