Anyone getting braced on Jan. 23?

#1 Post by felicity_and_reece_mommie »

Just wondering if anyone is getting braced on Jan. 23? I am. I had one spacer put in Jan. 9 on the upper right side(didn't need one on the upper left side). I go on Jan. 23 for my Upper brackets to be put on and I don't know when he is going to put my lower on. He told me that he has to move my uppers first. My top teeth would hit my bottom brackets if I got them on now(I have a bad overbite). Good Luck to everyone who is getting braced this month and in the future!!!

Congrads, and good luck tomorrow. I think you'll find getting braces is surprisingly easy. I do recommend taking some type of pain killer before you go and stay current if you will for the day following the directions on the bottle.

Not to scare you but 2 hours after leaving the orthos office was the most difficult and painful. Fortunatly it did not last long.

I had four teeth pulled Dec 28th and then ceramic uppers and lowers put on the 21st. Mine went smoothly--the hardest part is trying to talk normally--hope your alls did too!

Hi!

I got my braces today on the 23rd!

I just joined the site and I love it!!! There is so much informations for newbies like me :D

I actually did a little research last night and came across ArchWired. If not, I would not have known what to be prepared for.

I'm not in pain right now and i hope it stays that way!

Metal braces on top only.

Hey felicity_and_reece_mommie
Just wondering if anyone is getting braced on Jan. 23? I am. I had one spacer put in Jan. 9 on the upper right side(didn't need one on the upper left side). I go on Jan. 23 for my Upper brackets to be put on and I don't know when he is going to put my lower on.
I got braced on the 23rd as well just wondering how it went? My banding was horrible but the bonding was a breeze, I slept through it.
