have u ever had braces, i have them now and they really suck!!! :smile:

[Luna]

I do D: They're going to take them off in a few months though n.nV

[I'm Always BROKE]

Yeah I had them. Now they are gone.
Still I have this night brace or something...

[Isaac702]

I have them and i will have them for another few years !!!
There really anoying when you get them first but its quite easy to get used to them

[Mars Djinni]

My orthodontist thinks I need them, but my dentist says my teeth are fine, so I really have no idea. If I am going to get braces, It'll probably be jsut until my teeth are placed almost perfectly the way their supposed to be.

[pHantOm]

Just got mine off :smile:

[Golden Djinn13]

I still have mine, but they are gonna be off in a few months ( maybe 3 ) I had em for 3 years, and sometimes ( depending on what I eat) they hurt like hell.

[Andross]

I had braces - only had to wear 'em for just over a year though >:]
Got 'em off about 4 months ago. They suck because food gets stuck in 'em very easily and whenever they tighten 'em . . . ugh.

[el_Sethro]

nope; never had 'em. although many of the people I know have had them at some point or another. I was born with "my mother's teeth and my father's jaw". in other words, my teeth are big and my jaw is small. luckily, I got away with just a retainer when I was little, and my twelve-year molars where removed to make room for my wisdom teeth (which was MUCH easier than having to deal with the wisdom teeth after they came in).

anyway, I think my teeth are pretty much safe now.

[Wild Fox]

I lost mah grill in the eighth grade...which would now be three years ago. It sucked because I had them for about five years. +headgear. Oh boy was I a cute little nerd. :smile:

Stick with what your dentist says! He probatly knows much more about teeth that your orthodontist does. Orthodontists only want your money, I can tell you. :smile:

[cyberRoll]

Ohh lucky me I have none. Never will my dentist says I have perfect teeth I havnet had a filling befor and probably never will. Talk about tooting your horn!

[Echo_djinn]

My teeth have always been straight and lined up correctly and that's the way they will always stay. Though braces maybe annoying I could barely tell when someone is wearing them even when they speak towards me. I just don't notice them.

[m&m]

have them now but getting them off in month or so. i've ony had them on for about 7 months, every one says im lucky...does it hurt alot to get them off or not?

[angelchii]

i'm gotta get one soon enough

[loz]

:o nope never had them, though my mom says i will need them

[MysticWarrior]

No, I never had them, but everyone (including me) thinks I should. When I was little, and I mean 3 years old, my two front teeth were removed (they hurt <.<). I took about 3 years for them to grow in, but they didn't grow in right. One of my front tooth sticks out about a centimeter from my other teeth, and my second front tooth is kind of dug in, but not as great as the first one.

EDIT: Well, not really a centimeter. More like 2 millimeters. I was too lazy to measure it with a ruler.

[Izar]

Yikes

I've never had them. My dentists always comment on how perfectly strait my teeth are every time I go for a check up.

[Demon Adept]

*sigh* I've had bottom braces for a year and a month and top for five months. My bottom ones should be coming off sometime soon (I hope) but the top is a problem. Every normal person has four very front teeth, two big ones and a small one on either side. I'm missing the smaller ones so my big ones have moved apart, creating a gap. I have a piece of gum that has grown down too far and has to be removed. Then, I'll get two false teeth :D

[Izar]

Wow.

If my teeth were really bad, I'd go for expensive surgery, or false teeth. When you first get false teeth, they are alot whiter than your other teeth.

[Kwesi]

My teeth are pretty white right now BECUASE I BRUSH THEM EVERY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :blink: . YOu like my smile.

And no i have never had braces.

[Unicornmaddy]

My teeth are really weird since I was a baby my 2 very front teeth curve out and during primary school I was called an assortment of things most commonly 'Bugs Bunny'

[Eugine]

Can't remember if I said it but I don't have braces, my teeth are perfect IMO.

Braces aren't really bad IMO also, because usually people who have braces usually have the better teeth in the long run.

[Eothain]

I've never had braces. I don't think I really need them. My teeth are not perfect, only very minor separation between my upper front teeth. And i agree with eugine, people who use braces have better teeth in the long run.

[Eugine]

I was exagerating :blink:

My cousin has braces, her teeth are much whiter than me and ofcourse she has more dentist check ups than me so her teeth his much better than mines.

On the side note: Eothian, you should be more active here, you're a great new member.

I humbly thank you. Of course, I'd love to, it's just that i'm friggin juggling between online high school courses, regular high school homework, AND eventual weekend work. Once I'm out of school I'll be able to relax a bit and be more active.
Anyways, going back to the braces thing. I saw an old friend of mine yesterday at a party. Last time I'd seen her she still had braces, and now that she's gotten rid of'em she looks quite nice.

[Eugine]

Is that the girl you hooked up with now? :P

I'm attracted to girls who have braces, don't know why though. Just fettish about it...

[Mathak Kraven]

Never had braces, everyone one of my RL friends are jealous about since either they had to get braces or have to get braces, or have braces now, I feel so lucky.

lolz, no, it's just a girl that used to ride the same bus as I did. she looks nice, but i wouldn't go out with her....she's much younger than I am...well, not THAT much younger, but i still wouldn't hook up with her.

[Golden Legacy]

I've worn braces before, twice in fact. The first time was during the end of elementary school into middle school, but my teeth relapsed (i.e. went back to the way they were before), and I had them again for a year and a half in high school. I wear removable retainers now - for the first two years, I have to wear them every day of the week, but each year after that I can wear them less and less (not to mention they're invisible, so it's not a problem).

[Saturos S.]

Had them, they were hell the first week or two. After that, I didn't really feel them anymore. When they were removed I was like: "Whoa, loads of room in my mouth."

[Moonear]

I had them for two years and like SS, I didn't really notice them after the first month. Now I wear retainers, which are probably more annoying than braces. I'll be happy when I have no more metal in my mouth.

[Someone Else]

I am braces free for a little over a year. I barely remember wearing any. Wore them for 2 or 3 years. Don't remember, don't want to remember.

[My Best Wishes]

I had a top brace for a year and a half, instead of a retainer I have a wire on the back of my teeth, much easier, and I don't speak like a retard because of a retainer.

[SavageMoon]

I got braces in grade 5. First I had to have four molars pulled out so there would be room in my mouth. I was the only one in my class to have them I guess because it was kind of early to get them. Had them for two years and got them off sometime in grade 7. My bottom teeth are kind of crooked because my wisdom teeth have now grown in and are forcing the others to the front. I pretty much need them again :blink:

[Someone Else]

I only wear retainers at night. The only thing is that it doesn't do the taste in my mouth in the morning any favors.

[Caael]

Nope, never have and never will. When the rest of my wisdom teeth come through, they'll push the other teeth together, closing up any gaps that I dont know about, and straightening them out. Lucky me :D

[Aquamarine]

I wear retainers during the night and often during the day when I'm at home just playing the Wii or browsing these forums or something like that. They've done wonders for my teeth and they never really bothered me that much.
