Just Had Lingual (similar to Incognito) Braces Put on a Week Ago - Illinois, IL

Lingual Braces - latest update
WORTH IT$8,000
I have an appointment mid Feb so a new video will be up after that. Here is my latest vlog I posted on my channel. My overbite has came in SO MUCH! I think my teeth look a little straighter now then they do in that video because its been about 2 months. Keep up with your elastics and the process will just keep moving on smoothly. The elastics (tiny rubberbands) are for you overbite for those who have it. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask her or on my vlog channel, I respond pretty quick to either. I sometimes post pictures on my instagram smiling, not for the purpose of my braces progress, but you can see how they changed a bit over time throughout my profile. Thanks for taking the time to check my profiles out. I really appropriate it :)

How much did your braces cost?
September 23, 2014
I got both top and bottom lingual and I am paying about $10 000 Canadian to do it. It's almost double what I was quoted for regular braces but being 24 I didn't want to look like I'm back in high school. Well worth the extra money if you can afford it.

I've had mine on for just over a year and my teeth are 1000 times better. One of my lower teeth was pushed back a fair bit on the bottom and a few un even. The top I had a gap between the 2 front teeth as well they were outward and slanted. My top teeth are now all together and straight. The bottom teeth are all straight. I still have about another year to go but it seems to be all just tweaking. Making my top teeth perfect with the bottom. Making sure each tooth is where it should be. The first week socks a bit. I didn't notice the braces as much as other people. No speech issues for me. Never wore wax. And the first year flew by. I'll never regret getting braces or the fact I picked lingual as very few people have noticed them before I told them.

Almost 7 months with Lingual braces
Its been a fast 7 months already with my braces and WOOHWEE did a lot change. My bottom teeth are starting to look really nice and straight and my top teeth look great as well. I only have one fang left waiting to get attached to the wire. Springs were added on each side, on the top, of my moth to help close the gaps and shift my teeth back a bit. I have an over bite so Im wondering when those elastics will be coming... I have a new vlog update on my Youtube channel. Don't forget to check it out!! :)

I am so sorry I drag horribly with these responds, but I am very happy with my braces. My age does not bother me anymore especially learning how common braces are becoming among adults too. I even forget I have braces sometimes :D

Are lingual braces the same as invisible braces? I don't know the difference. I was thinking of getting invisible braces at my orthodontist in Calgary, but I'm not sure if I want to. invisible braces calgary

Invisalign and lingual are different. Invisalign are plastic trays sort of like the ones you get when you whiten your teeth. You will get maybe 10 or 12 in your set and change them every so many weeks/months. Lingual are like regular braces but are on the inside of your mouth. You will need the orthodontist to change the wire every other month roughly. Both you "cant" see but invisalign is only for small changes in the mouth and can not do all cases. Lingual can be put on type of issue. Invisalign you also have to remove to eat and brush your teeth. Both are great if you dont want anyone to know you have braces. I got lingual in May and love them.

i am 19...and was planning to have braces...as i have major teeth problems..crooked teeth....WOOHOOO!! :P anyways as i am a bit old i did not want anyone to know that i am going to have braces so lingual braces are my only option. But the dentist said that there will be cuts on your tongue and you will have problems while talking. So just wanted to know about your initial experience. I have a massive phobia of dentists(don't know why) so the thought of having them put things in my mouth is way scary so that's why i need advice.

How did your mouth feel afterwards? My daughter wants to get htem but I'm concerned she'll be in a lot of pain afterwards

My teeth were sore, but its bearable. I think with any type of braces youll experience soreness bc your teeth are being pulled and moved. Tylenol helps me when I need it, but its nothing I cant handle or any average person.

Ok thanks! I had heard that the lingual braces were worse because they tore up the inside of your mouth, it this true? Or is it just painful in the teeth like regular braces?
Thanks!
