Not sure what you mean by this, as my doctor is trying to ‘expand my mouth’ & maxilla (which has changed), also mostly pulling them outward. She’s also about to make sure that I’ll have enough space for an implant.
Though… ‘Negentropic’ should mean that everything would be ‘as it should be’
I was told that after I remove the braces I should have retainers for another 2 years, so they don’t move back towards their original setup, as they apparently tend to do after being straightened.
But yes, this is kind of what I was hoping to hear also. For some reason 2 years+ + 2 years seems a bit… slow and sus for 2023
Wow you have a good doc. AFAIK most will try to do the opposite and make you go to your dentist for some teeth extractions once you dont have enough space lol
Tbh I did have my permanent retainers for about 4 years… I would always be careful
I’m about to start my (second) orthodontic treatment with transparent aligners for not wearing retainers. But now I want this I guess it’s either one or the other, or wait until I’m done with the treatment to start with this
I would expect to feel pain with braces, fair.
It seemed odd that I’ve felt pain and saw very fast results in the first 3 months (I was ready to say ‘good enough’), then almost no pain, extremely slow results in the following year. I know people who got Invisalign and were prolongued by 1-2 years.
I just couldn’t… help wondering if, since I have no idea what they’re doing… Very costly even to have them, as they at least increase teeth damage that must be solved afterwards.
Though I don’t want to sound ungrateful, it took a lot to get to the place of bring able to get braces. Still at least a decent amount sus.
Visually not so much. Functionally enough for me to notice. And in just 5 months mind you. Those bastard really wanna go back to the place they once were at lol
everyone should tongue chew with this audio, tongue chewing is using the base of your tongue to flatten out a chew on the top of your pallet. which strengthen the tongue, and there was a study which was done that shows there was a correlation between wider maxllia’s and stronger tounges
