hello everyone well i got my mouth braced today around 10 am and its now 5. Everything went great i had no problem at all except with the BANDS!!! those things were a little difficult but nothing extreme.
I went in the room waited for about 5 minutes and then i got messured for the bands, i thought they would stay when she had put them but then she said that Now it was time to glue themm, so she glued them quick and she got started with the rest. I didnt taste any of the glue like other people had said, my mouth was fully dried. So i had a spring attached to my wire to open up my teeth it feels wierd but im fine, I also had a rubber band attached to the tooth in back, She said its for it to come forward, hopefully soon:D, Heres a picture of my braced mouth, i chose the NAVY BLUE LIGS but not satisfied. my first adjustment will be on the 24 of july, i will keep posting when i see changes.
Ill be having them for about 1 year or more the ortho said it would depend on how fast they move.
Samantha_lou thanks for your comment, and i'll be posting pics right when i see changes, i jsut experienced my first tooth burshin with braces, it wasnt good i hope i get used to them fast, im sore on my top teeth but not that bad. thanks for dropping by to all
KK thanks for your comment, i dont know how my brackets are differnet since there the only ones ive seen they look familiar to the otherones but probably i didnt pay attetion to the others, Rinsing with warm water and salt has helped me my mouth feels sore still but the wamr water with salt does help thanks for that adive.
KK, now i understand what you were talking about the difference, i do remember my ortho telling me about the new brackets they had but i didnt really care much,
linda21, im doing fine i know i started with a spring, jeje i hope this helps me alot and hope to see some movement from here to my next adjustment, thanks for the comments
Your pics are great! How exciting is it to be braced? And would you believe... we got braced on the same day... and our estimated treatment time is similar- I'm looking at 9-12 months!
I love your ligs! I unfortunately don't have ligs which is a bit sad because I would have loved to have a brightly colured smile! But what is more important to me is that my ortho is comfortable with the brackets and they work.
Best of luck, I look forward to hearing all the news about your teeth!!
