Yeah, I’ve had braces for about since last year in November or October and they kind of suck because yesterday I got them tightened for maybe the sixth time but I did get really pretty colors so yeah
Team braces I got 4 brackets on my upper front four and they did not know that the wire poke me. on the 2nd day of braces they fix them and pressure cause a bit of pain not bad
Last week I went to the dentist after 5 years which I put off due to anxiety. I have two broken molars due to cavities and I can't wait to get back to chewing normally, videos like yours are helping me normalize going to the dentist.
I have had 3 root canals my whole life, one of which lead to an extraction(no crown). A lot of fillings and 2 crowns. Best advice? Brush floss and rinse on top of regular cleanings at the dentist 😅
The most kids (and also adults) are afraid of the dentist, but I LOVED it as a kid, i don't now why, but i really liked it to go to the Dentist and also doctor.
I never wore my retainer. I had difficulty wearing it due to my Hawley retainer making me gag all the time. When we did the clear retainer, it just seemed to accumulate a lot of saliva, and I couldn't handle that either. I've had my braces off for about 8 years, and my teeth hardly moved at all.
that saliva is actually a good thing, without it the teeth would be more at risk of decay wearing those every night. But I'm glad your teeth didn't shift :) lucky
My dentist never had me wear rubber bands for some reason. I had a removable herbst-style retainer and then eventually the full on permanent herbst retainer But even that didnt fix my jaw issues, so when I was 17 I had surgery to move both my upper and lower jaw forward
I'm one year out of Invisalign and I can truly say that I am happy with my smile. It did not help with the tartar that would only build up on my lower teeth which is why I originally did it.
Sadly team braces I’ve been going for them for 2 years now. BIGGGGG GAP from sucking my thumb when I was little. Now I’m in the rubber bands zone! Almost done ❤
Same, sort of. I have/had an open bite from a tongue thrust. 2years into Spark aligners and many elastics and refinements, plus a year of physical therapy to correct my tongue thrust. I’m on my last week of trays! Next week I see my orthodontist to get my over correction trays and finishing elastics. I can finally bite through food without having to use the sides of my mouth - at 42 years old and almost $10k later. You better believe I’ll be wearing my retainer every night.
I only WISH my mom had gotten them for me when I was a teenager! I honestly believe I wouldn’t have the dental issues I have now if I’d gotten all my teeth straightened & spaced where they should be! I guess I should have just gotten them myself when I was 18 & had my own insurance, but tbh I didn’t know it was even a thing for ‘adults’ to have them! (That was back in 2001.. lol) Both of my teenage daughters have had braces. My youngest had her first round of them when she in 2nd grade to correct a severe crossbite. (*Parents: pull your kid’s loose teeth to avoid this happening!) She’s 13 now & will have to get a second & final round of them soon to straighten them. My oldest just got her braces 1.5 years ago & the inside of her lips looked like they were all cut up! They had the white skin all over the inside that was actually cut from her brackets & hooks. It only lasted a few days & then it was fine, once she was able to get used to it, but her first week was rough! She pretty much had to “relearn” how to play her brass instruments as well due to the way her mouth/lips had changed from the braces.
I used to be able to fit half my thumb behind my upper and lower bit when my teeth were closed. My orthodontist did me dirty though by only putting braces on my upper jaw. I didn't know better. Later on he was on the news for doing treatment he wasn't qualified to do as he was only a dentist. He wreacked my teeth and left me with permanent damage. I was 33.
Not gonna lie I love braces😭 it’s annoying sometimes and those rubber bands and power chains will have you reevaluating your life choices but they’re so cute!!
Yeah, this is true. I used to have braces, but I don’t but the only time I really did break. My braces was when I was overtime I wasn’t supposed to still have them on so it’s OK that I broke my braces.
I’m probably getting braces sometime next year, I’m scared about 2 main things. First, the mold. Do they still use that? Or do they use a scan type thing? Also, I’m worried about what qualifies as ‘chewy’ or ‘hard’ because if I eat the wrong thing, it might be painful…
Yo I got braces and don’t be scared of the mould at all I wasn’t even aware what they doing and literally 0 harm and for the food, eating chewy and crunchy food doesn’t hurt at all it just has a chance to break your brackets, everything will hurt for the first couple days though
@@connormccabe6038 I have already had an expander, I had the 3D scan for that. So for braces, it’s the same thing but you could pay a bit extra to get that?
0:01:17 I had a permanent retainer put on (back of my teeth) Until one of the brackets became loose 8-yeats later and took I think a month and teeth started to shift. Now have small gaps between teeth.
I had terrible teeth so had to get braces as a kid with pallet expander and nighttime headgear. Well, my mom made me miss my appointments 5 times in a row and so the orthodontist basically said they wouldn't work on me anymore, and I had them removed 1 year premature, and was not given a retainer. This was over 15 years ago and my teeth look "pretty good" now today, I'm sure they went back somewhat, but they aren't even close to the monstrosity they used to be. I've been thinking of getting braces again recently or maybe invisilign because I'm not happy with my slight overbite that was never corrected, and it wouldn't hurt to fix any malocclusions that still exist in my mouth. My dentist says I don't need them, but I still kind of want them.
Oops ….. my top retainer wasn’t molded properly and my bottom was way too small . They wanted my parents to pay more for me to have it all remolded again…. Nope I’m good
No member of the medical profession can ever force a patient to wear anything they don't want to including a Herbst Appliance! In England, the patient needs to consent to every treatment stage; if the orthodontist fitted an appliance without said consent, he / she would be "struck off" i.e. unable to practice and could also be sued. When will the medical profession accept that they are in the employ of patients and must do as the patient instructs?!
0:01 honestly I want these but for some reason I have two teeth on top of each other and don’t have a perfect smile so I ll just wait until I actually get braces😅❤😊
Bentist I appreciate the water flosser but if I’m in the middle of class and someone says there’s something in my teeth I can’t exactly whip that thing out 😂
My friend said she is going to DIE When she gets braces, and I keep on saying you’re not gonna die. You’re gonna be fine but she says I’m gonna die because of pain.😂😂
You know what’s embarrassing,being an adult or big kid and crying at orthodontics but you know u can’t back down because ur parents are paying way too much money for it and then the orthodontist starts roasting u like bro,big deal kid or adult is crying because ur jerking there teeth,and weavin metal with them
This is the first time I've saw your content and I need to ask you a question. Im currently having my teeth removed not all of them but a good majority of them. See when a dentist takes the xray and see you have abscesses on a few of the roots of the teeth should they A- just pull them regardless or B- give you Antibiotics to get rid then pull. My dentist has been pulling my teeth regaurdless which is causing swelling right up to my eye and i was in severe pain for more than a week n half. I do have another tooth to get extracted that has an abscess on the root and I'm not sure do I let her pull it or get the biotics first (that I haven't ever been offered). Bentist can you qnswer my question because I'm unsure if my dentist just wants to butcher me.😱😱
I had my braces and rubber bands as an adult and had them on for three years. I had to learn to say “Maryborough Hospital Pharmacy and my name speaking” which is a mouthful anyway on the phone several times every day at work. Lol wish I had that braces flosser with the rubber and grabber on the end when I had braces genius 😁
Question: so I believe I my dentist told me I have a TMJ disorder and braces would help, do I need anything special or will the classic rubber band braces work? How do braces help TMJ?
Bentist can't believe you STILL have the bracket on 😂 When's it coming off? I doubt you have that square people get as pretty sure you brush your teeth meticulously lol
Out of topic but i got a hawley retainer on the top and braces on the bottom today. The hawley retainer is soo annoying i got to sleep with it on. The 2 bottom teeth in my mouth have already started moving. I am soo happy bc 1 of the bottom tooth was behing the 2nd bottom tooth and its already straight it hasnt even been a day yet. The braces is starting to hurt.😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Tip: after coming from the dentist like have your teeth drilled and stuff eat some or get some ICECREAM it kinda helps bc Ice cream is cold sooo hope this helps!❤😊
I like this Dentist. And not just that, you can see he got some hair plugs, and he's wearing them proudly. @Thebentist, can you please tell us a bit about your procedures and the hair implants? As a Dr, I know you did your research, and that would help immensely!
I literally got my braces on today, I know I will get used to them but when I sat up to look at myself in the mirror I almost started crying. Just a fair warning to anyone getting braces in the future, you don't look bad, you will get used to it. I am only a few hours in and I already feel more comfortable in them!
I went to the dentist a couple months ago and the lady asked my mom if I've ever had braces and she said no, and they said my wisdom teeth are perfectly straight lol I do want braces, but I know I don't need them so I'm not gonna even ask 😂
eAtInG tAkIs rOCkS just straight up killed me😂😂😂😂
?
Same😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
When I had braces I always crushed my takis lol bc I loved them and i still wanted to eat them
LOLLL btw I loved the blue ones
The PUAHHHHHH gets me everytime
-PUAHHHHHH-
*_PUHHHHHHH_*
Fr tho
Lmfaoo right😂😂😂
Team Braces getting braces next month
Nah cuz it's actually so funny
"unless they lied to you and you're actually not getting them off."
Its facts, that always happens
braces just suck for the first week, and then its fine, UNTIL THEY TIGHTEN IT FOR MORE PAIN🤕

@ lolololololol
I've never been into braces and such but this herbst appliance looks badass...It looks like shock absorbers but for your teeth
I have to get one
I have to get one bc I have a big overbite so rubber bands won’t do anything

you bite down and they scan around your head. I've never had to use a mold

@@SkibopDaSequel Interesting.
9:34 I can approve, I broke a bracket in my sleep before. I went to bed and it was intact and woke up and it was broken.
I'm 38 and I just get my braces this year. I'm so proud of myself because for the first time I can afford them. My teeth were really crooked.

When I had a water flossers, I never really used it for braces. I only used it for my pallet expander because all the gunk could get it.
Team you have to get them but you don’t want them 😂
ortho broke off one of my brackets at the last appointment when trying to switch out my wires 🤣
I get to throw away my retainer at Christmas.
Ok here are some cheap items for braces:
1. Proxy brush
2. Platypus Flosser
3. Orthodontic Wax
4. Orthodontic mouth wash
I got my braces yesterday and it hurts
10:28 he said you could break my tooth ahhhhhhh😱

As someone getting my braces tomorrow this was pretty helpful

Those tips could be very helpful for me, cuz i'm getting braces soon!😊
NOT BRACES I HAD THEM WHEN I WAS 8😭😭
