I’m getting the fixed braces tomorrow Although the estimated time for most cases are 9-12 months , I recommend wearing that as much as possible and only taking them out for food and sports. I understand it’s hard to get use to especially when your in school but once you get them , try and speak as much as possible, like reading , singing for even just making videos for yourself to keep for the future. Once you get use to them , they become a normal thing and they won’t bother you anymore. I’ve only had them for 6 months , my overjet went from 1.2cm to 3mm with the constant wearing of them. Just think about how nice your teeth will look after this stage and how you can get your treatment over with sooner if you constantly wear them .
Great news for many with similar problems with the lower jew if set back, go for twin blocks to fit inside, many thanks Dr Sarah for that technical information
@@DCTVGAMING. Honestly it'll take a couple days of eating softer stuff also remember to put them back in immediately or your teeth will move and it'll hurt like shit dude. Mine broke and I didn't have them for two weeks and they wouldn't go back in
I’ve had it for a year now and it’s not that bad once you get used to it, I’m getting it off in 2 weeks and getting fixed braces. ❤❤❤ Wish me luck 😂 Just to warn you it’s a bit hard to make certain sounds/letters with it at first but with practice you get the hang of it 😅😅
Same question, I have a lower jaw set back than the upper jaw. I spoke to my dentist and he said he would not recommend these for adults. Is that true?
It shouldn’t snap that easily unless u bit down really hard. It’s made of plastic and shouldn’t be able to snap that easily without force being applied
I had one of these when I was a kid and it was hell. You can’t speak properly, eating becomes a chore and you look weird with it on. Thank god my teeth r straight now
You just showed pushing the upper central incisors INWARD. This is not good… Upper jaw needs to be brought up and fwd, then the lower jaw to follow. The graphic you showed results in a lesser-than-ideal facial profile bc even though you brought the lower jaw fwd, the upper jaw is now brought back.
This thing is just waste of money .. for jaw growth try mewing or go have a surgery .. a palate expander will not widen ur face but it will give u an overbite or tmj issue for sure. Braces are also good option
its not exactly for jaw growth its to bring the lower jaw forward. also surgery is wayy more intense than these lmao idek what ur saying. no logic at all

Thank you Sue ☺️
I have them! Sometimes i have blisters. I have to choke sometimes. But i got advice to breath from my nose
Would twin blocks cause discomfort after fitting, plz Dr make a video about living with twin blocks, thanks best dentist
Yes I have just got them yesterday and they cause discomfort and my speech is affected at the moment I have a lisp 😕
Yes it does cause some discomfort , with time you do adapt to it. Thanks so much Sue 💗
@@zubeda.luvsss177 yes I also have a lisp and the plate does get uncomfortable from time to time but it will improve
How much does twin block treatment cost?
It makes sense to wear a dental appilance after twin block , so is it neccesary ?
I’m getting these in a few months 😢
Good luck 😁
I got mine 2 days ago it’s not that bad!
@@velocity2fast after the first few days its not that bad!
@@velocity2fast getting mine tomorrow hopefully
I have them for a year now and it’s not that bad once you get used to it ❤
After I turn my twin block with the key the next day my teeth hurt and are so sore 😢
I have mine but they keep making me gag and make me feel
Do these work on adults? Thank you 🌸
I only have 2 weeks left with mine and my back teeth don’t touch when I have them out I can’t physically but down on my back teeth is that normal
My teeth are inward in angle, is there any treatment you can suggest me? Bu the I’m from india
I have twin block 😢 I’m not in pain but I’m felling them
Aww it will get better with time
How is it going??❤❤
My teeth didn't grow after the treatment, what should I do?? I am not able to bite properly
Go back to your orthodontist...
Im getting these in a couple weeks...
AHHH I FUCKING GOT THEM .
@@Adequillx are they very bad? do you wear them?
Dude this is my 2nd day😭 how do you chew harder food?
@@DCTVGAMING. Honestly it'll take a couple days of eating softer stuff also remember to put them back in immediately or your teeth will move and it'll hurt like shit dude. Mine broke and I didn't have them for two weeks and they wouldn't go back in
@@Adequillxthx man it’s helping
If one of my bite blocks/Turbos fall off do I need to contact my orthodontist to fix it ?
Yes
My palate expander does the opposite . It narrows down my jaw width cause it’s to wide for my lower. Is that normal?
No. that’s terrible. a narrower upper jaw is going to cause another set of problems
Plz tell at which age Twink block is given to boy and girl
My doct suggest the age of 13-15 is the best to wear these , the older you are the less effective it is
I have to get this :(
Same
I will be getting g this tomorrow
I’ve had it for a year now and it’s not that bad once you get used to it, I’m getting it off in 2 weeks and getting fixed braces. ❤❤❤

@@Aanonymous_Userr ty it has been a while but It is getting better. I have a slight lisp because of the gap at the top.
@@Aanonymous_UserrI just got it yesterday and its so hard and it hurts 😭
im getting this in two days, i was just wondering will the lisp go away once your used to it?
Yep it’s really painful the first week tho
When I had mine for the first week it actually wasn’t bad. I didn’t feel any pain at all really just discomfort
@@ObvA1yssa yeah im almosy a week in its so painful but
@@Fullmovieszz yeah it hurts so bad 😭
@@eilidh.x.o oh 😞
Is that works with adults?
Same question, I have a lower jaw set back than the upper jaw. I spoke to my dentist and he said he would not recommend these for adults. Is that true?
I can feel the gag reflex the patients must have after wearing those😭😭😭
I have them rn and when I first had them in I gagged a lot lol
Me too I have them and I’m the first days I had so much saliva
I stood on my top one and it snapped?
It shouldn’t snap that easily unless u bit down really hard.
It’s made of plastic and shouldn’t be able to snap that easily without force being applied
Hi Dr
I'm finding it hard to actually eat will it get easier
I got mine 3 days ago and same my teeth hurt so bad
I had one of these when I was a kid and it was hell. You can’t speak properly, eating becomes a chore and you look weird with it on. Thank god my teeth r straight now
Can’t u take yours off to eat?? I can with mine 😅😅
i usually take them off when i eat
tengo así
Yeah me too
How long for ❤❤
You just showed pushing the upper central incisors INWARD. This is not good…
Upper jaw needs to be brought up and fwd, then the lower jaw to follow.
The graphic you showed results in a lesser-than-ideal facial profile bc even though you brought the lower jaw fwd, the upper jaw is now brought back.
I HAVE THIS AND I FUCKING HATE IT
Mewing can also help
Thanks
You're welcome 🤗

Mewing is not going to work and surgery would mean having your mouth wired shut for 6 months
I still can’t speak with these there horrible
