    Man , i wanted braces so badly bcuz i had little bit space between my front teeth and one of my lower front teeth was slightly crooked , i am 18 now so now it costs 3300 instead of the 750 when ur a teenager , so i decided to work for it , i worked every weekend for it until i got the money and yesterday i went to get them , feel so satisfied unfortunatly they only put the upper just yet cuz my lower teeth have a slight hole in them so 31 of juli i will get my second part , im really happy

    I just have the open coil springs and it really hurts so much...I feel more pain than the first week of having my braces. I thought, the first week of having braces was the most painful one and once you can adopt. It eases the pain but not until my dentist put this open coil springs. I have to drink 2 pain killer med in a day.

      I had my braces for almost 9 months before the power chains were introduced, I had overcrowding, overbite and misalignment. It's weird seeing my teeth so straight. The over crowding was fixed with extraction. These power chains are the most painful. But then again I didn't get prescription pain killers this time.

    :') I have a large gap created from improper previous orthondontist treatment, and am now with a more compassionate, and honest office... What my past was never provided, my current orthondontist is.
    He used open coil springs in the main concerned areas (first premolars and canines). And I believe it's now in due to open space, but to deposit new bone growth, to thereafter help better close these spaces. They'd be applying my bottom braces in October, and starting rubber bands. Thankfully, I'm confiding & seeing how it pans out.

    Mine started hurting recently, even though I've had them on for about 3 months now. I've been consistent with my rubber bands or elastics, and they're actively trying to shift but are held back with these likely open coil springs. 😅 I had an assistant in the office last tell me that they're likely just using an open coil spring as a passive/to hold it's gap there.

      I have two extra diagonal teeth that goes inside and my dentist wants to pull and align it straight. So, he had this idea of putting open coil spring to move some teeth to give way to my extra teeth to prevent extraction of my two front teeth. This is just a trial, if no movements happens in a month. He had no choice but to extract my two front teeth. But if it does work, no need for extraction. Idk if we're the same case.

    Hello Dr. Greg. Wonderful video explaining the coils in an easiest possible way. I just got an open coil spring placed between the right lateral incisor and the first pre-molar, in order to create space to bring the canine forward. I would like to ask you that, within how much time does the space get created (on an average)? Also request you to show us in upcoming videos the types of archwires and also the types of brackets (not like metallic and ceramic), since not all the brackets on all the teeth look exactly same. Looking forward what next exciting topic you are going to introduce us to. Thank you.
    Keep up with the great work! Warm wishes to your channel.

      Hi Tushkar! First of all, thank you so much for your kind words =] I really appreciate the support. I like that idea and have put it on my list for upcoming videos! So for the space, it can take several months for the space to open. There are a lot of variables such as : how much space is already there, how much space you need, how fast your individual teeth move. Keep me posted on how long it takes for you!

    Hi! I've had my braces for almost 4 years now. I've been taking care of them since the beginning because at first I was only supposed to have them for 2 years. I have been flossing properly, I had a coil spring to close my gap, and I wear my class 2 rubber bands but I feel like my orthodontist is milking the clock with me. Do you have any advice that I can use for my next visit to find out when I should get them removed? My braces are already paid for and every time i ask they tell me 6-8 months.

      Oh man, i'm so sorry to hear that. Really proud of you for keeping your teeth clean for 4 years! That's great. Maybe it would be a good idea to ask him what he thinks you could do to make them faster (if anything). Sometimes we just have to be careful with how quickly we close your teeth because 1] we dont want you to be in pain! && 2] we want to make sure we don't put too much forces on your teeth that can cause damage

      Hi,
      My upper right canine was impacted. I had surgery to remove it /c bone graft and they extracted my first premolar on my upper left side. It's a lot going on in my case lol but I was afraid on how it'll look with one canine, she told me the premolar look like a canine, she showed me other cases pictures before and after (similar to mine). I was satisfied with the work she has done, she came highly recommended. I suggest you do your research and if it'll make you more comfortable ask your orthodontist to show you pictures of their work.

    Could you do a video about mini screws ( TAD ) and how they work, your videos are very helpful. Are they permanent, does the patient have to be numb to palace them?

    • @DrGregAsatrian
      @DrGregAsatrian  6 років тому

      Hi Mariam- all excellent questions!! && yes! I have that in the pipeline pretty soon so make sure to sub & stay tuned! =] They aren't permanent (actually the T in TAD means temporary... Temporary Anchorage Devices) but yes you do need to be numb to place them but generally its just a super tiny area && your whole face won't feel numb =]

    In the case of closed coil spring, since you can remove it, should you removed it if your eating or just let it stays in there?

    I had a passive coil at first because I had a baby tooth that they needed to preserve the space for an implant later. my lip got caught in it all the time and basically ripped little chunks out. it was annoying and hurt a lot. I got a new passive spring during my last wire change but it fits the gap much better. haven’t had any issues yet. I have a large gap from a missing molar so I might get an active spring at some point or maybe power chains (can’t afford two implants and I have an extra wisdom tooth on that side anyway).

    I had a coil spring placed to make space for one crowded tooth. Yesterday I had it removed and and wire placed on bracket of the tooth that needed to come forward. Just overnight the tooth has moved so far forward but the teeth on each side have also moved closer together again. It now looks like this tooth will not fit in between the the two teeth where space was created. I'm sorry I am trying to explain this as best I can. Please advise what should be done now. Thanks

    Hello doctor,
    My orthodontist applied two closed coil spring from my upper right and left lateral incisors to my 2nd molars. They slipped over the bracket and are now leaning against my gums. When I wore elastics I could easily adjust them, but I don’t know how to move the close spring back over the brackets. PLEASE ANSWER. THANK YOU!

    Hey Doc,
    My ortho inserted mini screws after 3months. And he connected with rubber bands
    One month later he took off rubber bands and now he is using closed coil springs
    I have an overjet problem
    Which is better for retraction?
    Coil springs or elastics?

  • @mountainman6172

    My lovely orthodontist just inserted a coil spring to make room for my highly anticipated canine impact; blockbuster debut tehehehe. It is going to be very tricky, because my canine impact abode in a challenging angle. Expecting the worse (canine extracted) and hoping for the best. I have promised myself I will donate £100 to a random charity if it all goes well - finger's crossed.
    Thanks Greg! Bless UP! >)

    • @DrGregAsatrian
      @DrGregAsatrian  6 років тому +3

      That's an excellent question! There are so many factors that go into extraction of teeth - I will make a video on it soon but just have to simplify it so still working on that! Best way to know if you need extractions is to go for an orthodontic consultation and they can explain to you a treatment plan!

      I mean common sense ?? Sever crowding and lack of space. I have a tiny jaw and big teeth. So I preferred getting some useless out of line premolars out.

    both my top canine teeth are impacted and they put a passive coil spring where it should be and it hurts a lot. theres a lot of space between the teeth so i can move the spring a lot, and so the end of the spring gets caught on the inside of my cheek and my lip whenever i make an open smile. i put some wav on it and pushed the spring into it for now, but im going this week to get it looked at.

    I got a open coil put on late week and my orthodontist put the bands on two of them (the coils was place on my three bottom teeth) because one of the bands wouldnt stay on. My question is that one of the two bands that were put on the coils fell off and I was wondering if I need to go back to get a new one put on? Or would the coil work the same without one of the bands?
