I've been working towards this goal for two years!!! Braces will be put on Tuesday, just on my upper jaw for now. I'm so over dealing with these teeth that I'm already scared of any manipulation. Has anyone worn self-ligating ones? (American H4). How long will they be on my upper jaw? The administrator said 1.5 hours?! Ugh, I can't handle that long... the doctor said about an hour. Can anyone give me a rough time estimate? I'm kind of scared of the process, my mouth already hurts from being held open for so long. How are braces to wear? Will I be exhausted from cleaning them? God, why did I sign up for this )))
Can anyone tell me how a lab technician (chemistry or physics) works? How does their workday begin?…

My daughter has them too. The first time, it didn't last more than an hour on her jaw.

She has a whole arsenal of products for care, plus a dental cleaning every six months, probably.

My daughter is wearing them, and they weren't too difficult to put on, definitely less than an hour. Cleaning them, yes, it's not easy; she uses an irrigator, a special brush, a monobrush, and interdental brushes. Her jaw hurts for about a week after adjustments. But she's gotten used to them and doesn't want to take them off, even though we're almost done with the treatment. They said we'll remove them this year. She's been wearing them for a year and a half.

Vedeneva Yuliya Did they put it on one, then the other? Or did they put them all on at once?

Vedeneva Yuliya No, they don't put them in at once. First on top, then on the bottom after about six weeks.

They first put them on the top, then later on the bottom. I can't say it was an unbearable process. I wore braces for two years and I can say it was totally worth it :)

Well, they'll be bonding a bracket to each tooth, so yes, it takes a long time, and before that, there's tooth preparation. A water flosser is the most essential thing with braces + super floss + a single-tuft brush, plus a regular toothbrush. Brush your teeth after every meal; cavities develop quickly with braces, and treatment is difficult. It will also hurt, possibly a lot, so much that you won't be able to chew for the first few days, only super soft food

Ekaterina Are yours lingual braces? About how many minutes does the installation take?

Ekaterina Mine were the ligature-free kind, yes. I don't remember how long it took. I had them put in about 4.5 years ago. It was about an hour, I think.
