Metal Mouth Message Board

I currently have silver on top and light blue on bottom Im having them put silver on bottom also. at my next/1st adjustment I am getting red (promised my kid) depending on whether or not I have a job.

I got pink ones:

I only have pictures of my red on brace day and the orange and white I"m sporting now. I had baby blue and metallic purple in between.

Went with a dark blue powerchain on top and yellow ligs on bottom. No picture though I do have a silly question. Does anyone else get nervous before an adjustment, not because of pain or worry about what they'll be doing, but about not being able to decide on a color? I actually have had nights before an appointment where I laid in bed debating on what color to go with.
I really need to get a life.

Has anyone noticed staining with the silver ligs?

I got silver ligs 6 days ago. Last night, I had a curry with a fair amount of turmeric in it and they look OK. On the strength of that, I'm going for another curry tonight.

I just recently did a collage of my progress over the past year and I love colors!!! So here it is...

Impressive! I love the lig changes over time and of course your progress.
There is hope for me yet .
I think I will get either brown or navy blue on my visit next Wed.

I wish my ortho had metallic ligs...he has silver and some normal colors and some odd ones. I wonder if i can buy some on the net and bring them in myself for them to use on me?

MuleNag:
I really like the yellow and pink together and the orange and green (I'm a Miami Dolphins fan though hehe)

Your progress is sooo great!!!

okay so let's see if my picture comes through....this is my one and only pink ligs..........i go back in a few weeks to get my first adjustment and change my lig colors.....i'm thinking razorback red and silver!! go hogs!!! lol!!!

Your progress is amazing!!!!!!!

Your archwire was getting straigter straighter in every picture!!!

And colours were cool, too!!!!

Rage, I'm jealous

Here's my latest - aqua. I think they might turn green pretty quickly though.

Pink powerchain on top and green ligs on bottom.

These are my last ever colours

I meant to take the pic when they were first put on but I got a little lazy

This pic is from a few weeks in so they're gettin a bit dingy. The purple on the top started to fade very quickly but you get the idea.

I needed to get powerchains at a recent adjustment. My ortho only had clear and blue available, so I chose the blue to avoid staining. Since I had another appointment two weeks later to reposition some brackets, I went ahead and got blue on my uppers also. I personally didn't like the colored ligs because people who hadn't noticed my braces were suddenly noticing them. At my next appointment, I had the uppers changed to something more discreet.
