i’ve had ceramic braces for 10 months now and they’re honestly amazing. my ligatures don’t get stained easily and my braces don’t break either. (i broke two once because i was eating ice, so that was on me. not on the brackets) mine are completly clear and i honestly love them! i’m so happy i got them instead of the metal ones. Update: Hello! Today it’s currently July 6th, 2020. I’m getting my braces off this 21st and I personally really liked my experience. For some reason, the brackets I broke during the process where mostly my back metal brackets! They don’t break easily, I’m sure of that. Clear braces don’t stain, at all. What stains is the ligatures (depending on what you eat) and that’s okay because you get them changed every appointment. At the end of my treatment I went a little bold and I started using coloured ligatures and it was very fun! My favourite colours ended up being baby blue, baby pink and lilac, they made my teeth look whiter and they never stained!

when i had braces i got the metal braces and always got silver bands. it got to the point i forgot i had them (aside from the pain) -- it wasnt a defining part of my personality/character. people forgot i had them. i had them longer bc i didnt wear my rubber bands all the time in middle school. but eventually i just put them in and left them there, and replaced them only when they snapped. things moved quickly after that. my one friend had clear braces -- they stained so much. especially when he ate cheezits ... i think if you are worried abt braces being noticeable, do what i did- get the classic silver braces, and only ever have silver bands. im so glad i didnt get ceramic braces. they would have looked much worse. aesthetically; its like how i only wear pearl earrings -- its classic, its more resigned + refined. it goes with everything. you will get through it. i cried when i heard i had to get braces, but believe me, it is worth it. and a privilege not everyone has. stick with it when you are young and your adult self will thank you greatly.

I am getting jaw surgery and 8 months into my treatment I found out that the surgeon prefers metal brackets. I got clear on top and metal on bottom. Both the orthodontist and surgeon reassured me that it will be fine and that if I got metal brackets on top I would have to wait another 6 months to a year for adjustments. Make sure both doctors are in proper communication to avoid misunderstanding.

However, at times it feels my upper jaw feels a bit unstable since I had to get it operated on twice. The Dr thought I may have a non-union. It feels like it may be gradually improving but I will not risk another surgery unless it gets worse. He thought I might have been clenching too much.

So I got my lower braces May 23rd. It took an hour to put them on. They didn't put brackets on my canines because of my situation. My teeth started to get sore not even 2 hours in. I ate normally until night. I had to eat soup because of the pain. The pain isn't what people describe it. For me the pain was bearable unlike my spacers. My teeth were really sore for 3 days and I had to eat soft foods and slowly. But the brackets with hooks were a pain in the butt and they still are but not that bad. Stock up on wax and oragel I would recommend. I'm getting my upper braces and 1st tighting done the 25th. A day after my brother's birthday (Yay, I can eat cake and carne asada comfortably) But braces have taught me how really important oral hygiene is. The only things I don't like is when my cheeks and tongue get caught on the brackets/wires.

I have a question not really about ceramic braces but regarding something else... so I have very impacted canines that face one another high up in my gums on the top of my mouth... my dr suggests I get them removed surgically as well as get my bottom canines taken out and he wants to replace my four canines with my first pre molars.. do you think that’s a good idea? Have you done this before on a patient? Are the end results still aesthetically pleasing?

its me you only NEED them when your braces from the top row are hitting the bottom row and you can feel it. This causes pain and can knock some brackets off. If your bite is off then it’s up to your orthodontist to give you bite blockers or not. After a week or 2 you get used to them.

i have ceramics on my top row of teeth and metal wire that runs through it. Tbh people can still see if if theyre talking to u right in front of you but i like how no one can tell in pictures. Like for school pictures or taking selfies with ur friends, its basically invisible from that distance. (mine never fractured or broke before, and i eat many hard foods too, although eating hard foods has caused them to fall off...which has happened to metal ones mainly)

Hey doc, just a quick question, my orthodontist advised that after my braces I should wear both the fixed retainers (up and down) and at the same time the removable (metal) retainers. Is that the best option? ty

My dentist has clear wires that she’s going to use with the clear braces when I get them on in 2 weeks , is there much difference in the clear wires than the normal metal ones ? I don’t know if they’re newly brought in or not because I haven’t seen much videos about clear braces with the clear wire too online

@@cherryrose5514 I was scared they would be noticable but I got used to them and a lot of people told me they look good on me. I have fun with the colors of the bands too. This month I chose pink and so far it's my favourite!! I was going to go for invisiline but I am glad I have good old metal braces now. I saw the ceramic ones of many people and I still prefer metal brackets because they stain less and they are less likely to break. They are also a lot less bulky than clear ones.

I am having mine done tomorrow . Clear , ceramic self ligating braces , both upper and lower. That will be £5500 please, I am in the UK, should I have gone for the metal ones? I understand the wire can be a clear one now as opposed toa metal one making it more discrete? I am worried about staining although my dentist said that should never happen , and if it does it is down to poor /irregular brushing?

Are ceramic braces ok on my bottom teeth if I have bridges on the top teeth? I am afraid I am going to wear down or chip my bridges with the bulkiness of the ceramic braces on the bottom. I was supposed to get metal but the tech advised ceramic free of charge because I was afraid of the metal bracket being too abrasive to my upper teeth and now I am wondering if they made the mistake of doing ceramic.

Hello, I like your videos. I have just been informed I am gonna need braces because my crossbite is giving me a lot of trouble. What I'm concerned about is - I have CAD CAM crowns on my top two front teeth, is it safe to put braces on them? I have had them for 6 years, but I still live in fear that they might chip, break, or fall out(?!), or something crazy like that. One has some kind of line across, like it's cracked (I think I hit myself once with a cup while drinking tea). The doctor that did them said it was nothing, but it's definitely something. So yeah, I am just looking for some extra opinions on whether that's gonna be in the way of getting braces

I have clear brackets, but those white ligature ties are the devil!!! They stand out like red on a white sheet. I've tried a few other colours including silver which "made me look like I'm wearing braces", (although i like the way they look again my pink lips lol), but no colour compares to the clear/colorless ligature ties. Yes they stain easily and make your teeth look yellow, but I typically replace mine at home when that happens 😁

But my experience has been just that! They just feel bigger in my mouth than the metal ones. Could you please do a video on what results to expect at the end of orthodontic treatment? I'm curious about things like what is the correct bite supposed to look like and how the teeth should ideally be positioned afterwards.
