Braces Off! How to know if you're DONE WITH BRACES?!

Показать описание

Taking braces off is one of the best parts of being an orthodontist.

When checking to see if a patient is ready to have their braces removed I look at a lot of things but here are the main 3 concepts I look for.

1. Straightness of teeth: Do all of the teeth align properly in a nice U shape

2. Overjet: Are the top teeth slightly ahead of the bottom teeth.

3. Midlines: Do the top and bottom teeth line up to the middle of the face.

At the end of treatment, I will smooth out the tops of the teeth, and you can get whitening completed.

Bless you. This is so CLEAR! My braces come off this Thursday and this just confirmed what my ortho says! After 8 teeth pulled and 2.5 years, I'll have a straight smile!

I was REALLY looking for a video talking about that because I always had an open bite, and I don't know what the perfect bite is supposed to look / feel like . Unfortunately, my dentist doesn't explain ANYTHING, and that's really not a good thing because I have lots of questions .
Now I know that I have a good overjet
Thank you so much 💓

GREAT VIDEO! Exactly what I was looking for

newsflash

For anyone who is looking for this comment, I'm here to help!
I got my braces 2 days ago, and it hurts to chew, I got upper braces only, since I have a crossbite, and it does hurt to chew, but it's not that bad. It depends on the person I guess but for me it hurts when I eat but it's not unbearable. I can eat stuff like chicken nuggets if I use the side of my mouth to chew slightly.

It does hurt the sides of my mouth, and there is cuts, but I just distract myself and the pain goes away, I don't use painkillers, but I eat ice cream or something cold for pain.

And apparently it takes 3-5 days or even a week for it not to hurt to chew down on food and to be able to eat normally. So it will take another few days for me but I'm looking forward to it! :))

Also apparently you feel the same discomfort when you get them refitted and they change wire so it'll be another 3-5 days pain when you do get them refitted. :D

Good luck to everyone and if you have any questions ask me, and I'll try to answer them! :D

Edit: Im also getting my braces off in eight months so a short amount of time for me since the cross bite isn't major and it wasn't a must to get braces I just wanted them to have straight teeth 💀🙏

I currently had braces and my orthodontist said that your upper teeth are perfect now but i still gaps in my upper teeths is it normal?

I have a question that really concerns me…
Can the rubber bands on my Invisalign make my bite crooked if they pull at two different angles?

Explanation: I just started treatment and the hooks on the left side of my upper trays were somehow cut backwards, so they won’t hold the bands. Originally, both hooks were on my canines but the orthodontist hand cut new slits on my left “first premolars” for my first few trays. He put in an order for my trays to get corrected but I won’t get those until tray 6-7.

The problem is the bands pull at different angles and from asymmetrical locations. I’m not wearing them because it feels like my bite is going to be crooked. Should I be concerned?
