Sometimes the hole not appear at all so we can’t put the key on it wha we have to do

@drdougortho 3 күн бұрын

this typically happens when you either don't fully complete the turn the day before, OR accidentally unwind the screw a little when removing the key. the only way to get it back on track is to turn the key to what it looks like when the turn is done, and insert it in to the back hole that you can't see (that is facing the back of the throat) and finish that turn. then the new hole will appear in the front. Or just call yoru orthodontist and have them do it!

My gums are resting on top of my braces already bc i didnt know how to properly clean under the gums how do i fix this😭

@drdougortho 6 күн бұрын

That's likely inflammation from too much plaque building up between your braces and gums. Once it gets bad, it's hard to get it back to normal until the braces are removed. A good electric brush, water pik and Listerine daily will help!

To everyone saying they can’t eat or they have a lisp etc, this will be temporary! I’m only on day 6 of having mine and my lisp is already gone! I can swallow fine too now but food gets stuck, that’s normal though. The first few days definitely suck but even though I’m only on day 6, I often forget it’s there. You got this and remember it will all give you a smile you’re happy with in the future. P.S. you may be like me where the brackets in the back are super sharp on your cheeks but to solve that I just had wax on there the first few days and now I don’t need it because my cheeks are used it.

@drdougortho 9 күн бұрын

The screw is probably stuck between positions which is the common reason for this. It's ok to miss a day or so until your orthodontist can get you back on track

If you can tolerate it until you go, best to leave it alone... You could break something else if you try to pull it off.

The Expanders are cutting is cheeks due to the huge brackets so make sure if your daughter gets them you buy plenty of wax . It helps .. I guess now adays they don't wanna pull the teeth for extreme over crowding .. honestly bottom is easier to turn then top . It sucks to see my son in pain. Good luck .

I just got mine 3 days ago, and i got the very uncomfortable ones where they have those brackets on the sides closet to the cheek and i was wondering how i could stop it from making my cheek from bleeding. I got wax to stick on the brackets but sometimes it doesn't work and doesnt stay for that long. But my main question ; is there anyway to stop it from hurting my cheek while eating for the first 3 weeks

@drdougortho 3 ай бұрын

the wax will stay on BETTER if you can somehow dry the area of metal before putting it on. i know it shard, but usually a papertowel around your finger to dry it a little while pulling your cheek out, then stick the wax on. I know its annoying, but eventually you will get used to the tubes that stick out.
