Orthodontic Band Placement on a Molar

[@LunaAdelaide]

I'm already getting this for almost 1 week and suprisingly..it doesn't hurt at all for me😳 Update:I already wear braces for around 1 month..and it doesn't at all..i didn't regret wearing it💙

[@johnpaulalbrecht7305]

me too! My friends that didn't go the molar band route always complained how often their brackets detached when eating hard foods.

[@tanviparab6016]

I have 4 of them.. 2 above and 2 beloww... Its hurtiinngg badllyy when i drink cold water or brushing my teeth or eatingg something.. Because of that i can't eatt anythingg... Its only 2 days that i put them.. I hope it will not give me pain in some days or else i wouldn't be able to eat any thing

[@user-in7rr2vd6x]

Mine have been pushed in too deep into my gums and the gum above it bleeds a lot when u brush, what should i do? My orthodontist only put these bands on my molars and hasnt got around to putting all of my braces on, as of corona. What should i do? My orthodontist is closed, is there a way i can take it off of my tooth? Or should i put wax?

[@tahra9815]

the same thing is happening to me try salt water it reduces the amount of blood and brush very softly and make sure you floss around the area gently

[@loltigercute4350]

Sneha xox Yeah one of mine have like dug into my gum I’m really worried do you have any update on what to do

[@tahra9815]

Loltigercute the same thing happens to me like i said and do what i said in true other comment but i have taken it off now and it has made no problem it just might bleed a little for a few day’s when you brush but try contact your orphodontist but if they aren’t open try your dentist they might be able to do something about it

[@rehhhhab]

I have 4 of them and the 2 which are on the upper side they seem to come out, is this normal? Or should I get it checked, like they come out with a toothpick even with my finger nail but the 2 down they don't do the same and are glued on tight

[@TotallyOreo]

I’ve had this in on my bottom teeth for around four orfive months and for some reason today it really hurts I don’t know if it’s my wisdom teeth or if it’s this little metal appliance

[@-AnakinSkywalker]

did you find out which it was? i had one fitted 6 months ago and i'm in a lot of pain right now. not sure if its the band or if my wisdom teeth as the tooth with the band is the very back one.

[@howtodoit8365]

what if there is no molar left on the other side of the mouth? does it mean i can't have braces?

[@Itsirkristi]

Were u able to my sister is wondering too

[@AlexiaLeaslie]

Are these painful I currently have spacers in right now so that I can get these but I hope they are not hella painful

[@alluringcloud]

I currently have 4 spacers in my teeth and its hurting a bit but more than that it is quite uncomfortable. Can't even imagine what will happen when the doctor will put this.

[@therandomdudewhopostthings8091]

No no your misunderstood. This doesn’t hurt at all, it’s the damn spacers that hurt the most out of EVERYTHING

[@amizunosky7]

My first molar already got the crown, can it be banded for ortho treatment? Or it can not to be applied band?

[@babitasaini6177]

Recently a week ago get my braces four to five days after braces Get molar bands on all my four molar teeth. three still ok But the fourth tooth is shaking a lot. and paining a lot what do i do in this situation

[@lilymoo23]

I had one of 4 of these when I had the herbst appliance. I thought I had a cavity so I went to my dentist. She said it was a stain from the metal bands and there is nothing they can do.

Spacer hurt more on capped teeth. I had 4 and days 2,3 & 4 were horrible but The metal bands are horrible I’m biting metal and one I feel my spit and air under the band like if there is missing glue. I think mine were done wrong 😢

[@RowanShankaras]

I might have to get this because one of the brackets keep falling off. I am looking at the comments and now I’m terrified of the pain 😭

[@sarahansari1648]

I have got my braces off after 2 yrs. But the gap around the molars due to band is there and it's annoying when food get in gaps. How do i get rid of those gaps

[@zuhdinabi9403]

There is gap around the molars because the spacers couldnt do their job properly and your teeth had to be sliced to put the molar bands on them. This is permanent.

[@MR__-ly5lr]

What if there is a dental filling between the 1st molar and the 2nd premolar?

[@dooogybo8220]

What is the purpose of that?

[@dooogybo8220]

I mean why we need them?

[@Prince_Icarus]

@mentalpatient1 oh believe me, there’s always a spot for the separators no matter how tight it is, either that or you need braces

[@Prince_Icarus]

@mentalpatient1 I only have braces for a year now and I just got my molar bands. I do think what you’re experiencing is supposed to happen, it’s aligning your teeth slowly. The situation of my teeth was so bad that the alignment changed within 5 or 6 months. If you have any concerns, be sure to ask your dentist, I’m sure they are willing to answer your questions 👍. Also, idk if the process will be the same for you, but whenever a small gap opened, they placed the “power chains” to close it, they’re just braces but stronger and made of rubber and are only placed temporarily. Maybe your dentist will add power chains in your next visit?

[@nilayrachchh3371]

Those filing is still working or not? I need filling between 2 molar as I have gap and it hurt when I chew anything

[@kashafk]

I got them yesterday, and next week I'm going to get my braces. For me, its not painful till now but the only concern is that my right side tooth in which I have this, when I close my teeth it touches my down tooth, which makes it uneasy, as its metal but on left it's doesn't hurt my tooth. Please let me know what should I do, I'm going to consult my doctor but just wanted to know. Does this happens?
