10 months? That is too short, his teeth will move back quickly

Doesn't hurt at first for fix braces or retainers but over the course of an hour it can a bit...

2 years is probably the minimal depending on what they have to do. To be honest about 30% of the time is waiting for them to fix a new brace or to let your teeth move etc etc

He's had them off for over a year now and they still look perfect, 10 months was the right time for him.

I had them at 14...and i had loads of problems because my dentist put them on too quick, so i only had them taken off last Xmas :sad:

They don't hurt though :whistle:

Awhh i had them in year 8, not for long though only for about 9months.. I know it's a pain in the backside, but it's worth it for the lovely straight teeth at the end (:

I would love the idea of having it for 9 months... were your teeth bad? how come it took only a few months until you took them off?

They were quite wonky tbh but i guess the braces just moved my teeth into place quickly haha. After a couple of weeks, you get used to them and you realise they're not actually THAT bad.

ow wow i rember haveing braces i think im the only ever person who loved it get to choose you own colour bands to go on lol

Just been to the dentist and he said i need an appointment to the orthadontist as its likely i need braces! well thanks for telling me that now!!! Im 16, i dont want to wear braces!!!

I dont want them :sad: and how long would someone have them for anyways?? and you have to wait a long time (waiting list) dont you??

Should i do it?? the reason i dont want to is that what if im 18 and ive still got them.... horrible :sad:

If i do have it done, I'll get the white ones so you cant see them..... :bawling:

Yes you should have braces
it saves you big money in the future.

It looks bad , I know
ask if you are permitted to take them off when you go out
on a night?

If they say OK - so long as you put them back
that same night,
then that is the way to go.

It helps your teeth
unless you have a spare 7 thousand pounds
or something like that to get it corrected by
Hi Tech tools.

Yeah good point, my mum and sister have really nice Hollywood like teeth and my Dad hasnt and he has paid over £4000 so far and still needs major things done to his teeth.

Yeahh and i like the plan about asking if i can take them off when i go out at night.

You can take retainers out but you can't take out fixed, hense the name.

Braces are fixed in, like glued to your teeth.. xD
