    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 ...

    Hey kids I just got back from my second adjustment, they left me in the same wires but put a power chain on the bottom and since my teeth where so sore still they just tied the top together with a wire to keep them from spacing back out. But either way it went well but like he told me in the beginning that my bite would get worse and it has. The plan was for upper and lower and he told me that he was glad we had decided on both because it is getting to bad to fix without it. Either way I will very ...

    Hey guys/gals I just had my first adjustment they where only going to check my wires but said it looked good so they decided to go ahead with an adjustment. I received bigger wires upper and lower and now my very rear molars are attached, and I got a power chain on my uppers. A little sore right now but not bad at all. I even got a compliment on how well I was taking care of my teeth they said to keep it up and I will not have to worry about any stains.

    Hey guys and gals, on the 13th of November I will have had my braces for 3 months time flys it does not seem like it has been three months yet but it has I only imagine the next 21 will go just as fast.

Either way just a small update I will post up my first adjustment and what ...

    I got my spacers removed and molar bands put on today. Very interesting I would rather have my spacers back. lol Well either way they are huge and have some like tubes on them and some other fingers that are tearing me up even with wax. Why aren't they smaller and have fewer sharp objects on them?

    I have now had braces for 10 days and now feel good and can eat things, its nice. I still will be glad to get the spacers out but that will have to wait for another week or so. But either way it took forever or felt like it but things are indeed getting better.

    I just got my braces on Thursday the 13th and found out that I also had to get spacers at the same time, ok no big deal. Wrong I still am stuck to mashing up soft foods. I got every tooth except the back four on upper and lower because they are getting bands, I sure do hope that it does not take two weeks for this to go away.

    Hey guys some people suggested I start a blog so I guess, why not. Well anywho I am 20 years old and did not really want to go to the orthodontist but my parents got me an apointment, so either way they of course said yes you need them, however you will need surgery. I go to see the surgeon soon so I will let you know then what will be done. New to this so any advice just let me know. Oh and Sol does not mean (shit out of luck) it is my car a honda del sol.
    Thanks
