They don't hurt at all, and whenever your are doing different things rather than to think in your braces, you don't notice they are here:D

i think mostly of the brace wearers have hooks on their brackets, at least on 6 of themFlora2006 wrote:"... When he put the braces on, 3 brackets on both sides have hooks so I guess I am going to end up with them
Not only to bring the lower back but to bring the upper front. They work on "reciprocal" action, its supossed.ssfw wrote:"...Are the elastics to bring your lower teeth back?
It's supposed to be 18 months. I had a maloclussion class 3 (my upper jaw closed behind the lower, as you can see on picture) I think it's called underbiteHow long is your orthodontic treatment? What type of ortho correction needs to be done?
The ortho said me at least to wear them when sleeping, but the more time the better, so I have decided to wear it the most of the time. It's the same talking with or without elastics, and nobody notices them, believe me.Do you only remove them to eat? Is it easy to talk with elastics?
thanks KK, you're always so supportive!Looking good gsx ... great changes and progress in a short time!
So this is good for my treatment? Cool!Congratulations! That is great news that you don't need to wear a TPA anymore! Hopefully the elastics will work their magic!
I can't believe you already got elastics after only 3 months!
