I am very pleased with my results but please understand that the procedure is vicious! ???? the day of ur appt and about 4 days post every biweekly or triweekly appt feels like the devil lives n ur mouth. Ur gums are sore, teeth are sensitive to all pressure. The brackets may loosen because they are placed at an angle to help move the teeth but its usually free of charge to replace them. They may put spacers on ur teeth and even make space because I swear ur teeth will move n2 position from days to weeks. The pain required more than the Nsaids they tell u to take. U need to medicate asap after apptments to take the edge off. U will want to rip ur entire mouth off ur face. Ur gums will swell sometimes use oral gel along with meds maybe u will eventually fall asleep. Its worth it don't get me wrong but u will need a high tolerance for pain to endure. Make ur apptments because these braces work fast. Its been 4 months for me and I'm almost done!
Buckle up!
Inspite of,
A very happy gal!????

I am curious was there ever an option to ask your dentist to slow down so not so aggressive in treatment? I realize the point is to move fast and be done but from what you described I think I would have asked. how are you doing now?

They do not recommend going past 2wks per treatment visit! But the answer is No! lol they the teeth will eventually move on their own if not secure again within the recommended time frame! They can hold the teeth n place after alignment is 100% onset! Im doing great my dental journey is still going post ortho because I wanted a more cosmetic look such as a resin finish! Good luck! But also, I found that traditional braces look better at are more cost effective! Financially way ur opts. Also be sure to have the time to be at ur apptmnts on time each time!
