Congradulations Pam, I bet you are excited and happy - hope to be in that position someday! Only two years left. With luck maybe shorter. What kind of...
Welcome to the group Morena! What kind of braces did you get? About the only way my breath has changed, is it has probably been better just because I brush my...

terrible metal ones that make my entire mouth hurt. i wake up in the morning wondering if maybe i got hit in the mouth the night before, but i'm just being a...
I'm not sure. Unexpected stuff usually scares me enough into calling my ortho. Peace of mind is good, even if your problem turns out to be minor. Good luck....
Thanks, Mike. Hey, maybe you will surprise your docs and move along quickly, too. I am some 9 months early from the original estimate. I will just be 15...
Hi. Welcome to the group and congrats on getting braces. Estimates are just that, you may have braces the full 24 months, maybe less than that, or maybe...

I don't know if it's possible to pull down a tooth that's fused to the bone. I had a lower one that was fused and it was extracted when I was 12. It sounds...
Welcome to the forum domincan_princess - I've not noticed my oral odour changing too much since I had braces (3 months in now) but I guess with the methodical...
