White Knight Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Interesting........ lol I guess I view Retianers as a blessing instead of a curse, because I rather have Retainers than Braces. lol, but its cool you have your opinion. I have mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Knight Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 (edited) [quote name='Paladin D' date='Aug 9 2004, 02:56 PM'] I may have to get braces... [/quote] Well, it depends how bad your teeth are..... Some people wear them for a 1-2 years, some wear them for 2-4 years, some people even get braces muiltble times. So if you have too get braces dude, dont worry, I'm pretty sure you'd only get them for a 2 year maxium period if you do have to get them, hey, listen its early, I sould get going.

zwergel88 Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I've had braces for like three years, and they've been telling me that I can get them off soon for 2 and a half years. Its crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattosika Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 :angry: I had dental work done for like 7 yrs straight, started with getting teeth pulled, then a retainer, then braces, then retainer, then more teeth pulled, then another braces again then to the retainer, 7 years of being the sub of all jokes was well worth this million dollar smile though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattosika Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 oh ya I had one of theose metal brackets that that go around your head, the kind that on tv "sterio types" having braces wasn't fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lifeteenchick527 Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 i have never had braces...and i dont think i ever will...at least thats wat my dentist said :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iacobus Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Almost. But if I were to get them I would have needed my guns trimmed (that scared me). Plus if I ever missed a nite with a retrainer I would have to start over. I used to have gaps between my teeth real bad. But they have largly filled in now.

jinx Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 [quote name='Colleen' date='Aug 9 2004, 03:09 PM'] But I've been having orthodontic work done since I was about 7. [/quote] yep, me too... for ever, since 1st grade. and it has barely begun for me. I just had oral surgery and that was 1 out of 3 massive procedures. not talking about wisdom teeth either... its all cause i fainted in 6th grade and knocked out my two front teeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Knight Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Now that I think about it, Braces may not be fun in the process, but the aftermath results prove to be a blessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thy Geekdom Come Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 [quote name='Colleen' date='Aug 9 2004, 04:09 PM'] I had them for three and a half years, from 7th to 11th grade, too. It wasn't fun, but it was worth it. But I've been having orthodontic work done since I was about 7. [/quote] Yeah...at least yours was worth it. I got my underbite fixed, but my teeth still aren't aligned properly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
