I’ve had my braces and bite turbos for 24 hours now and so for so good.
Ortho
The ortho office was wonderful. Everyone was very friendly and professional. Questions were encouraged and answered. Two of the women who worked there had braces as adults and offered me advice and encouragement.
The Process.
The ortho and staff worked very well as a team, so everything went quick and smoothly. Each step was explained before it happened. The worse part for me was having my lips stretched for so long. Using lip balm before really helped.
The Braces (and bite turbos)
I have Damon 3s on my uppers and lowers. I’m a small woman with a small face and my teeth show when I smile. So I truly have a “tin grinâ€

Nice to hear that your appointment went so well. It sounds like you have a good ortho so far. It is nice to be able to ask questions and not have to worry about the ortho getting upset. I know there are a few people on the board that aren't that lucky.

Hope your journey continues to go really well.
