Hi Dr. Can you make a video comparison of Damon braces and tradition braces, pain, cost, and length. I got my damon braces on top teeth, traditional braces on lower teeth.

[@Similo]

Hi Dr. How do you deal with patients who have hyperplasia (even slightly), and making clear retainers on the same day? I'd there a healing period you give them before taking Impression?

[@N0N4M30]

I’ve had a permanent retainer behind my lower teeth for more then 15 years and I had to get some work done so they removed the wire and gave me one of those plastic retainers. I’ve never had any work done on my teeth so my teeth are very sore still it’s been 3 days post treatment , because I’ve had my other retainer for so long can I wait for a few days until my teeth aren’t sore anymore from the work done till I wear it again? I tried but there’s to much pulsation in my teeth. After your explanation I do fall into the category of the people who can wear it some days a week ? I just don’t want my teeth to shift but I can’t bare additional pain of the retainer now

Great video....

Ive been using a retainer for a year or so. It starts off fine and I use it every night. But It slowly gets harder and harder. I have a bad habit of grinding my teeth at night. Ive already broken my first retainer doing that and my second pair looks quite worn out. Ive gone 2 + weeks without wearing it, but the the teeth usually just hurt for that night and then the next night theyre back in the right place. Ive woken up with the retainer out of my mouth somehow and Im sitting on it. I dunno what I must do at night for that to happen lol.

[@sabajaved2035]

Hi great video thank you so much! i got braces about a month ago on upper teeth and going to get them on lower teeth in a few days, it did hurt first week. After that it stopped pushing my teeth like i could feel there is no pain, then after a few days i had a change of wire, i felt it for a day only and then i could feel that it haa stopped pushing. Is that normal? Like people with braces says that tightening hurts them for a week and wire is active for 2 weeks, why isn't that in my case. Also, if you grind teeth while having braces, is it going to undo the shifting/work that braces have done?

[@awa_de_uwu__-]

today i got my braces and i am already watching after braces thing and i know im not gonna use this until 2 years pass 😭😔

[@sophiak7825]

Forever ever 😊

My dentist has instructed me to wear spacers for a month, is it ok?

[@raihanahmed4514]

I'm from bd and here my orthodontist he's a professor also he said that I'll have to use fixed twisted retainers for 3- years then i can wear them off . I told him about clear removal retainer he acted like it doesn't exist! And yes he also extracted my four premolars saying it's the only way ( I have two cruded teeth and a little overbite)

[@deepkia3796]

Dr Nathan, I have braces since 3years. I have an overbite and my dentist says it's not. I want to remove it, but my lower part aren't still aligned. I can have my upper teeth with retainers in the meantime? Or I have to remove both then use retainer. Ty

[@MMTV_2030]

I had anxiety the first day I had permanent retainers. I couldn't breath because of it. I am asking my ortho to remove the permanent ones and give me the temporary one as Ill be totally responsible for it and ill commit to it. I don't want metal to hang around with me all the time and even after ai die 💀 I hate it as simple as that 😭

[@Kimchijoayo]

but teens teeth will be change when they are growing. it will be still fits?

[@Roblox_Player11154]

Today in 22th february 2024 i am gonna have braces😢

[@vedasfashiontrends9016]

Dont those invisalign braces release microplastics into the mouth ??

[@sfiso808]

Can I get braces even if my teeth are aligned, just because I want them?

[@shekinahbailey]

what if ur orthodontist tells u to wear them every night for 12 hrs at least when you get ur braces off like i did 😅

[@rimshamasood2016]

I got my braces off two weeks ago. I am wearing retainers since then but the problem is that I can neither speak properly nor pronounce words correctly. What should I do?

[@RyeClarke]

I was the same, for the first week I could barely pronounce anything, but it got better the more you get used to it.

[@rimshamasood2016]

@@RyeClarke thanks.

[@user-ez2rr9ix1c]

​@@RyeClarkeso you have permanent retainer or temporary

[@RyeClarke]

@@user-ez2rr9ix1c It is permanent retainers in the sense I would have to wear it for the rest of my life (lol) but it is removable.
