Braces.

This Will Come In Useful On the Forum :) +Rep! :)

braces (L)

i had mine on for a year, i only have to wear my retainer (similar to a really thin gumshield that has been moulded over your teeth) about once every 2 months for 20 mins or so :D

lmao im glad my teeth are fine, but my sister had braces & she had them on like 4 years LOL?

I got braces atm :[
They get VERY annoying as mines always breaks so I'm there like every 3 weeks lol
Anyways if you getting them don't worry it aint always MEGA SORE for everyone :] (Aint sore for me tbh)

Getting my braces out on friday :)

I'm getting my braces out on Friday. Can't wait. :)
Only thing I'm worried about is if I have to get that mould thing again for me retainer? Because I hated that. :(
Those are some great tips though.

I think I might start cry infront of the hot Orthodontist xD

Dont worry about crying :) God knows I did it a lot.
It helps if you bring music to listen to, to calm you down (I still remember I brought robbie williams to listen to :D)

Fraid you have to have the mould, so it gives them an idea how to shape the retainer.

Thanks for this! - +rep!!

My first orthodontist appointment is November 12th - been waiting since March for an appointment! I think it's a little late for me to have them since i'm 16, but obviously, the dentist thinks different.

Well, i've had my braces for three years and they have become part of my life xD. But yes, the othro has been my best friend. Been having arch expansion ( making my top jaw bigger), mutiple retainers and now braces, its really worth it. Sure its painful, but it really does work !
