i know i already asked this question, but due to the small response of 2 pages, i am asking again. Do you wear braces and/or a retainer? If so why? I have to get braces soon to get my 2 front teeth together and i need a retainer to move my lower jaw up. Total of $5600 canadian. Hehe. what about you? :thumbsup: \'

No, but the dentist hasn't invited me over in a while :mrgreen: So I don't know if I need one.

 

 

 

Needless to say, I brush, floss, mouthwash myself two times a day so I 'm hoping I don't need one.

Nope never have had them and hopefully never will. I don't drink anything besides water and milk so I think that helps. And I have pretty straight teeth so I think I'm okay.

now that i am 18 i really don't feel like wearing braces for 2 years lol. my teeth are straight anyway, just have an overbite and my top choppers are a bit too spaced out

 

 

 

hoping when the wisdom teeth come in they fix that

magekillr, If you're expecting your Wisdom teeth to help that, you're expecting a lot of pain.

 

 

 

On topic, I had a retainer and never used it for 5 years. It never fit correctly because they used the wrong imprint of my mouth. >_>;

 

 

 

So then I had a different retainer. Why did I do it? It was cemented to my mouth. =x

NO MY FRIEND, CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR AWESOME!

 

 

 

Seriously though, that is the stupidest question I have ever heard. There is no other reason besides "My teeth need to be fixed."

Ghost: I am prejudice towards ignorance, so that would explain why I appear to be so.

I don't wear braces nor do I plan on getting them. My bottom teeth are kind of crooked but my top teeth are fine so it's not worth the money. I will have to get my wisdom teeth cut out of my gums which is something I'm definitely not looking forward too. Oh well...

A fashion statement?

 

Ugly Betty (<3) has made it a fashion statement.

No, no she hasn't.

 

 

 

I don't care what trash mags say, nothing in that show will ever quantify as geek chique. Ever.

 

 

 

Nvm... lol

Ugly Betty is a show about a "geek" who works at a magazine place where everyone is "artificial", she's the editor's assistant (That's a good job).

 

 

 

Meh, atleast she's showing that being ugly geek you can still have a job which the "beautiful people" are wanting. Or maybe the show lies.

 

 

 

Btw Nadril, she's hot without the braces and stuff on.

Question: What other possible reason is there for wearing braces other than fixing your teeth?

 

 

 

A fashion statement? Get outta here, metalmouth!

 

 

 

Haha, that's what I thought. :P

 

 

 

I nearly got braces. You know, the one with the plates on your teeth. I thought it was cool (I was around 10 at that time and everybody in my class had one), but in the end I didn't need it anymore. I remember crying because I didn't get braces. :D

That's funny. :lol:

 

 

 

They were terrible. I didn't have for very long though, thank God.

Yeah, I remember finding out the tooth underneath one of my baby teeth was going sideways and not down. My options were surgery and ice-cream for a week, or braces for 4 years.

 

 

 

I said to the dentist: "So, is this the anaesthetic?!"

 

 

 

Still have a cute, baby tooth too at 19. ::'

I had a problem just like that. In junio high my adult canine teeth were growing out above my baby ones, not down like they normally do (yeah, i had two sets of canines on my top half, one on top of the other :? ). God I couldnt smile for months until my braces fixed em.
