Well i have had my 3rd adjustment, or really foutrh but 3rd time they did any actuall work. I would just say stay away from damon braces, a few of my doors a stuck open and they had to put ligs around them, and to open them they are extremely painful, just letting you all know, I hate them and they are wanting to change a bunch of them in a month so I am going to see if I can go with some traditional rigs. Any idea on how to ask about this? I just hate going each time and having them push on my teeth really hard to open them and its not because of plaqe or anything they just stick and have been doing this since the beginning and I now have a few of them with ligs on them so the doors are open and they keep catching my lips. either way I got new wires and such, and in may they will be taking x rays to see where they need to move some of the brackets around. So please help me I am normally not to pushy with things I am just tired of this it would not be so bad if the pain wasnt so bad at each visit.

    Sorry that your experience has not been a good one Sol, but this is one of the unfortunate problems that does happen to some people. It's usually people who make more plaque and it makes the doors sticky and then more pressure has to be applied to open them. This can cause trauma and pain ... which sounds like what's been happening to you. Some times the doors won't open and other times they won't close ... it must be really frustrating for the people this happens to.

    Ask your ortho why the doors have been sticking and is there something you can do to prevent this.

    Good luck!
