Metal Mouth Message Board

CLAmom Haha I know how you feel, I was the same way. I could not force my top over the bottom before braces no matter how hard I tried. Once I got the extractions and the powerchain, I was biting normal within the next visit back to the ortho. It was amazing. If I force my underbite back with my jaw...

Hey brendaj, I also have(had) a class III underbite and it's gone and I did not have oral surgery. My original plan was to have invisalign up top and ceramic bottoms because of my underbite.

If you have any questions maybe I could answer them for you since I'm just starting my invisalign treatment as well. They are very very discrete I almost forget I have them on. Starting new aligners is tough t...

Hey Cathy I just received my aligners a week ago and so far so good. They are pretty sore the first few days but you get over it quick. I'm doing invisalign on the uppers and ceramic on the lowers. I have one tooth that needs to be turned so they had to put an adhesive on the tooth (white not notice...
