Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

1 1/2 weeks

It's been 1 1/2 weeks since I got top ceramic braces. They started hurting about 5 days into getting them on. I've been eating everything with a fork and knife. Constantly checking if I have food in them. I do floss but it's really time consuming, I'm thinking I might get a water pic. I've included a photo and I can see that they have moved.

Got them

Got my top braces put on yesterday. They don't hurt but are bothersome. Added some photos. Will have my next appointment in 6 weeks. My wire is a memory wire ?? Said I will be in it for a few months then I'll have a hard wire.

Pictures and update

I go today to the ortho. It's just a follow up to let me know the treatment plan and price, which I already know but I guess that's how it works.
I had to have an emergency bottom tooth crowned last week, glad that's done. I know I have two cavities on the top teeth, I'm trying to wait until the first of the year since I've maxed my benefits out. I don't know if they will put the braces on since I have them? I'll ask today.
I've included pictures, had to take your own teeth pictures. I don't think they are bad, but if it stops my jaw pain and finally straightens them then I'll be so happy.
