Metal Mouth Message Board

Hey Mark, THANK YOU for the support and tips. I actually did Google Brace EZ, but got a lot of links for metal building manufacturers... :) hm... could You tell me what this stuff is, I never heard of it & could be really helpful now, as I had a bracket come off on Friday and the wire poking my ...

Hi Chris and welcome on board :) I just want to recommend using Waterpik (instead of floss), I found it VERY efficient and MUCH LESS of a pain to use. (some also come with an orthodontic attachment, which has a tiny brush at the end that gets around the wires and cleans the brackets REALLY WELL It's...

Hey Jay Tea, Glad I can help a bit. This place saved me from labial braces, so I owe it big time :) Yapp, I'll have FULL iBraces. Had the top on for 15 days now and will be getting the bottom next week, on Tuesday. So far, I can bite just fine, having croissants, bagels for breakfast, with no proble...

I'll make this short and sweet:
NO problems whatsoever

Hello Jay Tea, as everyone else said, I'm sure each of us have a different experience, but mine is encouraging, so far, so I'll try sharing. I've only had my upper iBraces on for 13 days and NOBODY noticed anything, ever (not even on day 1), even though I have pretty big gaps. I THOUGHT I have a lis...

Kate, That was great information, thanks! I was wondering why does it feel like I'm drooling like a Great Dane, all the time... :lol: About the lisp, I'm a bit worried, also. Mark, I think we got our braces on the same day :) I'm at day7 today and have figured out the same as Kate, if You speak with...

Thank You clare80, Ouch and Miss Smiley for the great advice and encouragement. It's been a week today!!! Can't believe, it's actually quite OK to get used to. I strongly believe and feel that I have a bad lisp, but NOBODY notices that I have braces on.... WhooWhoo :) Clare, I got the waterpik on da...

Thank You Clare, Yapp, You are right.. not even the softest food is soft enough... I'm actually planning on blending cooked vegetables and maybe some meet tonight, I cannot imagine living only on smoothies and soup for days... my collegues are making fun of me, promising to buy me baby food... :) at...

Thank You Lionfish and Blah Blah, So far, not terribly good, but NO Painkillers needed. Could sleep just fine, but eating is ... ghrrrr... having hot cereal with mooshed bananas... where is the good old crunchy nut bread? :cry: Thank You for the encouragement, I do hope it gets better with time, bec...

Thank You, Can't believe they are on! Wasn't fun, but not painful at all. THE most painful thing was, when I was leaving the office and we scheduled the next appointment, in 2 weeks for the lowers I asked about the movement (if any) that I can expect... and the assistant told me, well, maybe some sp...

Thank You clare80. I'm planning on having soup after the appointment and take it step by step from there... Ooooh, so exciting! THANKS again (It's great to hear that You are so used to them after only 2 months) and good luck to You, too! I'll post after I get them on, see how everything goes... :)
