For those of you with the self-ligating bracs, I am jealous, but I have the traditional braces with o-rings tying the wire. I just found that one of them has...
All, I just received an email from Yahoo that explains some changes they are making. One of them effects you, the subscriber and I have included it below....
Yeah it was a squeeze but I got it in and clipped! I tried normal wire cutters at first but they were too big!! Yip, at my last visit the ortho basically said...
I would say only if the arch wire has come out of the bracket, other than that, I would not concern myself and just wait until your next scheduled appointment....
My shortest visit ever - 10 minutes! Looked, replaced one O ring and that was it... Hopefully we are in the final phase - could be done by fall. That will be a...

I just got back from my 4th adjustment. Nothing interesting or exciting this time (except I showed them a cookbook for adults with braces. they loved it!!)...
Hi Brendan, It depends on how you're doing with it, I'd say. Some of the worst pain I ever had came after a tech forgot to tie in one of my brackets. (I had...
Hi Kevin. Glad to hear your 4th adjustment went well. How is that thicker wire on bottom feeling now? Hopefully you'll have an easy time with it. :) April ...
Hello again April! I'm doing well with the thicker wire. The bottom teeth are just slightly sensitive, but nothing that's stopped me from eating my normal...

Hi Anne. Congrats on getting the spacers in. You're officially on your way to getting braces now. I had the metal twisties too. I had the same problem as...
Metal spacers was one of the most painful parts of it for me, and I think I've just about gone through the worst of it after being in braces for 17 months....
Hi folks, Just so you all know, I have removed the post from michellelucky and banned her from the group. She just joined yesterday and posted the link so I...

Sounds like its going well for you Kevin. Where did you find a whole cookbook or did you make it? So you'll soon be into the elastics too, huh? I'm suprised...
I have the brackets on and ready for my elastics. I've had them since the beginning. It's the last 4 bottom teeth (2 on each side) that are getting brackets...

Off the top of my head it's the "I Hate to Chew Cookbook: A Cookbook for Adults with Orthodontic Braces" I'm pretty sure that's it. It has an '84 copyright,...

For whatever it's worth, there are some cookbooks available for folks who have had jaw surgery. The stuff is generally a lot more liquid than people who are...
