Braces & Teeth Drilling?! 5 Reasons Why

[@kevinfarrow7726]

How I ended up watching Braces Explained was when I got some orthodontic treatment done, and couldn’t remember what it was for. Now I come back for every video! The more you know!

[@milkonmend]

just had my check up appointment yesterday and was wondering why he was using a drill, I‘m so happy I have your videos, my orthodontist is not the best in explaining what’s going on

[@Button607]

You finally started uploading again! I found your channel awhile ago and just got my braces 2 1/2 weeks ago as a 24 year old.

[@HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo]

I got mine a week ago at 25! And it's so weird, I can. Put my teeth together without discomfort-bordering-on-pain for the first time in years, and my front teeth are together, like? I have a huge ways to go, but I always thought progress would take forever, but i'm already seeing results??! I hope your journey is a positive one!

[@Button607]

@@HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo I turn 25 in mid/late April. My teeth have moved quite a bit since having them only what will be four week on Wednesday. Im glad you are seeing results too! I have crowded teeth especially the bottom so they hurt a little more. Do you deal with crowding too?

[@HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo]

@@Button607 not really. There is a little bit, but it's literally three teeth. I have a lot of open spaces, though. It's really weird for much of my flossing to be difficult, but it's really exciting 😊 Good luck w your journey!

Getting mine next week at 27. Let’s do this fam 🥹😍

The best orthodontist is back! Can you make another live video about putting braces on!

[@lovelypanda]

Thank you for your informative videos, Dr. Greg. Would you make a video about solving jaw assymetry with brackets or aligner, please? My case is unlevel jaws due to loss molars (5) on right side.

[@dostadam4379]

Hello, sir. İ explored your channel 1 weeks ago. And i watched more than 20 videos on your channel. İt was very useful for me. Please, keep going..

[@ashleymontes1625]

Sometimes when a wire is poking me and the cutters can’t grab it they take the slow speed I think it is with a disk looking attachment and they file down the wire so It doesn’t cut me or anything else.

[@PickyPocketsLaughs]

At my last appointment, I had the same thing done with the drill and the wire. Feels so good afterwards

[@silassnow7653]

Hope you come back soon for more awesome contents! I love your vidoes!!! I just got my braces and I am very intrigue to know more 😇.

[@jessicaprocel9762]

Hi Dr. Grey! Any information about Acceledent that you can provide? Or bite wafers? Thank you in advance!

[@taylorm5108]

Can you do a video on bumpers? I have bite bumpers on my lower back molars.

[@ucheokwudili1285]

Where is your office I need to come there

[@ziee3226]

Hello, Dr. Greg. I have question regarding overbites. I lost my 2 lower first molar. You said, the treatment is to put elastic on upper premolar and lower 2nd molar. What would be the other way to treat my overbite with just only one lower molar? I'll be waiting to your answer, thank you!

[@nadirzenith1298]

Do you have your lower wisdom teeth, or lower third molars? If you do you are okay. If you don't have your lower wisdom teeth, then you might need to try to open space and get implant for two molars. Assuming, you have both of your lower wisdom teeth, what you can do is seek an orthodontist that is able to use the space of two of your upper molars to reduce the overbite, so you can have the same number of teeth at your lower jaw and your upper jaw.

[@shadowsamurai2119]

Hi I am big fan of your work I have a question one of my tooth hits the bracket when I close my mouth so it's basically impossible for me to eat can you pls help me

[@sayba3620]

does braces work in crowded teeth

[@missnina198705]

Hi Dr Greg I have a question. I have power chains and been wearing rubber bands. problem is my top n bottom teeth are now looking inward instead of just straight. I’m so worried bc I don’t want this to be my new smile. Why do you think this happened?

[@mrschristinemcrae]

Can you talk about the MARA appliance? My 10 will be getting one for her over jet. There isn't much about it on KZbin.

[@hiiiguysss1856]

In another video, you said if you break a bracket it slows down treatment because it might move and you have to change to a thinner wire, but if I broke my back bracket before my first tightening, and it's been two weeks since it came off (they kept it of for a week because my gums were inflated) will it impact it alot?

[@theeverythingkid]

Good question

[@kamishawilliams5753]

How much do you have to pay

[@jonikej]

I just head dental crowns of zirconia but now I’m being advised to put braces before jaw surgery. Do you think braces would damage my dental crowns?

[@baz3716]

Do you prefer braces or Invisalign for somebody that grinds and clench that teeth constantly?

[@sigggi_1687]

Can you show how to remove a overbite forsus but like not the spirngs but works like the springs? My thing broke and we know how to remove the bottom but not the top. It would be great but dont have to

[@leonadior8640]

Why the orthodontist will not use a light local anesthesia to reduce the pain for the patient when cleaving the truth surface once braces are removed ? I’m currently in lingual braces and my teeth are extremely sensitive, even thought I always use tooth paste for sensitive teeth only but without any success. (This is mainly a marketing advertising, then actually doing the job)

[@little_stuart286]

What would happen if you have to get your k9 tooth pulled on one side to fix the line meant of your teeth? (Im supposed to get it pulled in three months and I was wondering what all they would do)

[@kirstyc192]

I’ve had my lower canine removed recently due to breaking my jaw, my orthodontist is just closing the gap. It should be fine! 😊

[@taylorthysse8860]

My orthodontist took off quite a few brackets and replaced them with different ones, would you perhaps know why?

[@winston9971]

The hooks at the back brackets are poking my cheeks. What can I do about those beside wax ? Thanks dr

[@Ieiri_xp]

Hi

[@halalfoodaddict578]

Hiya doctor would you regiment Damon braces ? And is it better than traditional ? I'm thinking about getting damon done but worried needed an professional opinion please help

[@allisonthwaites3699]

What are the odds? My dentists literally just used a drill for the first time on my braces this past weekend. I freaked out when she brought it out at first but all went well

[@prdg_ballr1384]

How do I stop swallowing while getting braces

[@nicholaszaino979]

what’s up man it’s been a while

[@jaysantos9217]

this has nothing to do about drills but since I got my braces my lips are all swollen and cut and i have a big fever. Not sure if it's related to braces but yea. I'd appreciate a reply please!

[@caydenprescott]

I like it but it smells

[@smallhippie_4114]

Hey Doc can you talk about why your orthodontist might wanna remove teeth before braces? And if you don’t get the teeth pulled and still gets braces is that bad?

[@sya1383]

My dentist didnt remove any of my teeth cause she said then there'll be too much space. Im nearing 1 year of treatment, and im loving the results so far

[@EvalienWeterings]

Hi dr Greg, I have a question. my braces are now 6 months old and at the last appointment they took pictures and repositiont a few bracets. Does that mean the same ones aren't placed quite right the first time or is this common?

[@cakessweety9837]

Hi Doc, I just got my braces on. Im in my second week, and I just noticed why my braces are so low? I dont know if you were already answered this in one of your videos, 🎂but hoping you can give me the link to that video or if you haven't yet, might be good to have a content for this? Thank you! Hope you see this ☺️

hi .I have OPINE BITE . my dentist extracted 4 first moral teeth one month ago with baces. can I mewing with braces now ? can mewing couse to fastest closing spaces betwen teeth?

[@Thehfamilygaming]

How do I brush with my soncare I have braces ?

[@poppy4999]

My orthodontist uses the drill on my molars at least once a month. He’s ground the surfaces nearly smooth now. Nearly every appointment I have poking wires, which I don’t notice until I get home due to being in a lot of overall mouth pain right after the adjustments. He is very rough when changing wires or brackets. I’d switch orthodontists if I hadn’t paid him in full for my treatments, but since I’ve paid I’m stuck with him. Wearing metal braces has proven to be a very painful experience.

[@queen4life689]

Oh no You still should be able to inform him of your discomfort

[@IgAngryQueenYT]

7years ago I went on ortho treatment with 2upper teeth extraction and after 8month I discontinued my treatment for some personal reasons now my age is 22 so the gap of my extracted tooth are almost closed so is there any possibility to get a pretty smile ?? Bcoz now I think i need to put Braces ! Please give me solution sir

[@arthurdayne9852]

Can braces damage jaw bone ?

[@lauraformaneck5808]

Could you make a video explaining the differences between a carriere class ii distalizer and using class ii rubber bands on braces to treat a class ii overjet and when one may be better than the other. I've been offered both by different orthodontist consults and am unsure what may be best, there isn't much out there comparing them and what there is that i can find only states that the end result should be the same.

[@Lloyd_Christmas11]

Geez, stop shopping around and just choose one. They both work the same.

[@vasilikikokkala5087]

My orthodontist uses drill in between my teeth because she says the are really crowded and that's the way to make space...

Soon about to go to my orthodontist to consult about getting braces. Just wondering tho, can braces fix this thing called " bimaxillary protrusion " of the upper and lower jaw both moving forward? If anyone had similar experience ( using braces and treating this issue), does it work? P.S hopefully braces can fix it cuz aint no way I'm paying for jaw surgery
