Elizabeth, Good luck!! You'll do just fine!! :thumbsup: If you weren't nerve wrecked a bit I'd say something was wrong. The expectation of getting them on is much worse then the actual installation process. You might get a flip flop feeling in the bit of your stomach but that passes too. Just rememb...

Currently in the military, so everything is free for me. Please don't hate me for that!! Hate you for volunteering to put the longevity of your life in jeopardy?? "Oh please!" Glad to see my tax dollars used to help our troops for once. Thank you for what you all do, may God be watching o...

Doesn't really hurt. For me it was a quick process. Ortho fumbled around in my mouth for a few minutes and the next thing I knew they all came out attached to the arch wire, like a sting of pearls. The brackets..not my teeth. And ya, it feels a bit too smooth (slimy) until your mouth gets use to the...

As a little girl back then did you know the consequences of your decision? Probably not! Well guess what girlfriend, I'm 45 years old and if some dentist came at me right now to rip teeth out of my head and I didn't full understand why I would be yelling "NO" along with 99% of everyone els...

It's called Chloraseptic Mouth Pain Spray , it's a little blue bottle with a small nozzle, comes packaged on cardboard. where do i buy it? what does it do to your mouth? does it numb it to where you don't feel it? I got it in the tooth pain (...

Danielle, Try Chloroseptic Mouth Pain Spray for your shredded insides. Eat mush and more mush....Just think baby food like. If your teeth hurt without eating they'll really hurt chewing so don't bother torturing yourself, it isn't worth it. What? Mashed anything, squash, smoothies, oatmeal, pasta, s...

Well ya!!!

Take what you like and make smoothies. Fruit, protein powder, milk, ice cream. PAsta anything. Have pudding, rice, mashed potatoes, cheesecake, stuffing and gravey. Any meats you can grind up. If you had mayo, make chicken salad. If you want a hot meal add gravey and make a chicken mush. Yogert, sou...

Not for cosmetic reasons but for problems from earlier dental work. :jump: GOOD FOR YOU!!! I felt encouraged by all the comments on this website! :-** Yes, they are a great group of encouraging folks that hang out in Archwired. Having a little trouble with the stigma of being an adult and having br...

Welcome Tam :-)o :-1 Gotta love a fellow animal lover. Excepts cats, they're a waste of fur! :lol: No-no, I like all animal, just allergic to the feline. Bet again welcome, if you need to brag or vent, laugh or cry come back and visit often, there are some special people that participate in this for...

Good Luck!! You'll do just fine. When my spacers fell out it meant that there was enough space for the bands to go on and it wasn't so bad. If you survived the spacers the braces are a cake walk.

Although I must add that I dont eat meat :) Oops, sorry. I'm an insulin diabetic with Celiac (silly yak) Disease. Which means no gluten. So if were to eliminate meat I'd be left to eat "snow". :lol: God just delivered us 35" of the stuff last Sunday and 6" more on Wed....it's in...

Whine to people! Tell me the pain goes away! I cant eat a single darn thing We'll be sure to give you plenty of cheese for your whine. So return often. The spacers hurt way worse then the braces. It will be easier as time goes one. And you have to EAT!!! Anything you can mash to the roof of your mo...
