re:droopy face

#1 Post by newbie82 »

Why has no one replied to you yet?! Anyway MY opinion is it's fine, I've looked at photos of when I first got braces and I can't say my mouth looked droopy but it certainly looked a bit odd and now it looks fine. So i wouldn't worry too much.

Hope this helps :)

I wouldn't worry about it. With so many things shifting and changing inside our mouths – not to mention the fact that the braces' brackets add bulk – I think it's only natural that we experience some changes on the outside as well. I have an expander with brackets on my uppers and braces on my lowers and my mouth definitely looks different – sort of stretched out and fuller. It doesn't really bother me, although I have very little space inside my mouth at the moment and feel like I'm always puckering to make room! So I'm sure I've got a whole new set of facial expressions as well!

Best of luck!
