Got them braces off!! Now to the next faze retainers😩😩😩

2025/1/12 Edited to

... Read moreGetting your braces off is a significant milestone in your dental journey. After the removal, your orthodontist will likely fit you with retainers to maintain your new smile. It's essential to wear retainers as prescribed to prevent shifting back to the original position. Retainers come in various types, including clear plastic and wire options. Each type has pros and cons, so discussing what works best for you with your orthodontist is crucial. Maintaining oral hygiene during this phase is vital. Regular brushing, using mouthwash, and cleaning your retainers can help ensure your teeth and gums stay healthy. Also, consider regular dental check-ups during the retainer phase to monitor your dental health. Remember, the goal is to keep that beautiful smile intact long-term! Stay informed about your orthodontic care, and don’t hesitate to reach out to your orthodontist with any concerns. Embrace this new chapter in your dental journey!

I got veneers in 2021, and I don’t regret my decision! While they could have looked a bit more natural, I chose the classic white because the other shades were too bright. Overall, I’m happy with them, especially compared to how my teeth looked before I had my braces removed when they were a bit ye

5 things nobody told me about ✨braces✨
I got my braces put on Tuesday morning! 1. Your mouth is EXTREMELY wet sometimes. I catch myself drooling or with my mouth open randomly. They did not tell me this 😀 2. Over the counter medicine is a LIFE SAVER!!! I use extra strength tylenol ( 500mg per pill ) and it works wonders!!!

Getting my adult braces off
When I first got my braces at 20 I was super insecure and hated them so much. I thought they made me ugly and that no one would take me serious. They were also extremely uncomfortable and at times down right painful. At one point the pain became so bad that I could hardly eat and I lost 10 pounds.

If you want braces but not the look!
Another option would be clear aligners like for example Invisalign. The difference between lingual/hidden braces, and Invisalign are: Invisalign requires compliance. You must put them back in after you eat and wear them 22 hours a day or your teeth may not get the desired results. With a

Before, Ever since I was young I’ve wanted braces so badly to fix my teeth. I remember it started in the first grade when they started to come into an overbite that so many kids pointed it out. I was the first kid in my class to be told I needed braces, before I even knew what they were. Durin

Braces as an Adult.?! 😬🤓
Okay, let’s be real for a sec — adulting is expensive. The cost of healthcare alone? Wild. I got braces when I was 10 and wore them for over 5 years. Fast forward 15+ years later… here we are again! This is the not-so-glamorous side of adulthood nobody warns you about — investing in yourself all
