congratulations on your 'graduation' mike!
and kristeen, speaking of temperature sensitive, i'm
having it only on my lower right jaw.
it even gives me the sharp pain if i consume food at
room temperature. so food would be enjoyable only if
they are warm at body temperature.
i haven't ask this to my ortho. should i worry?
what does the sensitive-ness indicate? i'm afraid that
i have infections because i think the pain comes
exactly from the tooth with the molar band.

Hi, My ortho went through with the little surprise I was expecting and removed my braces last week. Actually, he spent 30 minutes putting in the bonded...

"Retainer for life" is my motto, whether I'm told I don't have to or not. I waited a LONG time to get this done, and promised myself and my husband that I...

I know what you mean about having the braces such a short time. Mine actually came off a little early b/c I was moving, if I had it to do over again I would...
I guess that is making me feel better about being in my braces for so long. I can't imagine going through all this and then being unhappy with it afterward....
I do not think a 2nd round of braces are necessary if one faithfully wears their retainer. My ortho has assured me that there is no way my teeth will move in...
AJ, could you please elaborate more on this if you can? I have had 7 root canals and now wonder if there is another underlying problem such as you have....
Even if you had gone through all of the torture devices, you still may have had a hard time with retention. After over two years in braces, my teeth moved ...
I just got home from my morning appointment with the ortho. The braces are off. Taking them off wasn't as bad as I have heard or have been reading, but that...
Hi Angi, congrats on getting the braces off! :-) ... Hey, speaking as a guy at the top of the range on teeth size, there's nothing wrong with big teeth! :-)...
- Glad to hear that it went well. Did you get your retainer yet or well that be in next week. Good luck with the other work that has to be done. Hope they give...
Chris, The work I have to have done in the next couple of weeks, I DO plan on getting the laughing gas! Retainers are in and I have the worst speech...
That'll get better, I promise. Give it a week or two. And the more you try to talk with the retainers in, the quicker you get back to talking normally. :)...
THANK YOU! I will post some pictures. When I went to get my retainer this afternoon and got my goody bag and instructions, afterwards my ortho took two...
That's very encouraging. My ortho said that if the spaces between my molars where the bands were don't close, then they will make me a different set up...
For me, it was one of the most uncomfortable dental experiences yet, having all teeth pulled on and scraped upon braces removal. I'll be honest, it hurt! Of...
Glad to hear your free of braces, Angi, and thanks for sharing your debonding story. I have Ceramic uppers so I guess, it will be a little more difficult to...
I think it took about 30 minutes from start to finish. I was told that since I had metal brackets and bands, that it wouldn't be nearly as difficult for them...
Well after 3 years and 8 months I am finally braces free. They came off on tuesday. I never thought this day would come. The removal took about 20 minutes,...
Congrats! It must feel great to be brace free. Thanks so much for sharing your story. I get mine off in two weeks so it is nice to hear what to expect. I...

The bottom one is glued on and that is going ok, a little hard to floss but not as bad as the braces. I go in for the molds for the top retainer tomorrow and...
I had the same exact thing in the same exact spot. It was really bad the last couple months. Anything other than warm food was not fun, the colder the worse...
