It sounds like you are miserable. I have the same problem with my brackets on my back molars because there is no wire through them. They didn't touch my...
Sorry I haven't posted much. I have a tendency to lurk and learn from others as this is still kind of new to me. I have had my braces on since March. Two...
My ortho wanted to either extract one lower front tooth - said no to that one...or file them down. Said no to that also as the teeth are too old and sensitive...
Kristeen, some cold sensitivity is normal, but if it is so extreme that you cannot use mouthwash, breathe with mouth open or eat/drink anything cold ... those...
You'll have good times and bad, but hopefully in the end you will see results that made it all worth it. Quite often, once the bad times are behind you, it...

I hope you do not need one. Didn't mean to scare you. But just an fyi, though ... with a good endodontist, a root canal is not nearly as awful as people...
I think my braces are slowly pulling one of my teeth up and out of the gums. Is that possible? I have one lower front tooth that is getting more and more...
I had one tooth in front become quit a bit taller, i thought the braces were pulling it up. I found out at me next appointment that the bracket had actually...

Thanks the warm welcome back. It was nice hearing from some familiar names. I don't know how long I'll be braced this time. I don't really care as long as...
