Got mine on my 23rd Birthday 🥳 08/10. Congrats to us. Waited all our lives for it!

As someone who has an overbite and needs braces. I never really gave it too much thought on how they work. I had them for maybe 3 years to 3 years and 6 months. This has been really interesting to see how they work and is well explained. If any one is getting braces, it is safe to say is when they first put them on there won’t be much of a difference from what you can feel, until the next day you will have pain depending (as for me it was my lower jaw and teeth) this is usually from the difference of your teeth being moved around since it’s not what your supposed too. After a week or more there might be some lingering pain but you should be alright. If they change the wires this will cause slight pain just because the old wires loosen and the new wire will be less soft. Also the pain won’t be as annoying as the first time you get them and a little last note is don’t try to eat hard foods such as apples and cut them up into smaller chunks. 👍😊

I have beautiful, straight teeth now. 😁

It will go away. The worst pain for me was the spacers for the bands on my molars. I nearly went through the roof when I brushed my teeth the night I got the spacers installed. Once the spacers came out and the bands went on my molars and the brackets on the rest, it was very comfortable. The spacers were the worst part of the 3 years I had braces when I was a teenager.

Jeeeeez baron, you literally took the time to film all of this, bro hope you literally get a mill subs. Earned yourself a sub for that fam damn

Man when I was 17 I had been wearing braces for so long I almost couldn’t remember a time without them. One day my mom took me to the dentist like usual and that’s when they revealed that I no longer needed to wear them. I remember the feeling of no longer having the tension on my teeth anymore was incredible.

like 1 year, close to 2 years into braces treatment because I have a overbite and two of my teeth's roots was about to collide with eachother or something. Now, the two teeth are perfectly fine and my overbite is coming clean. Just need to get my elastics game going. It's nice to see a video as to how braces work so I know how my teeth are moving around.

This was really helpful, thank you! I just got my braces at 24 due to two impacted (?) canines. We have a family history with delayed tooth growth. (I was 8 when I lost my first baby tooth, still waiting for the last two canines to erupt. Same happened to my siblings, my father and his mother.) Judging by the x-rays my dentist told me that those two still have a chance to erupt on their own, once we make space for them, because the periosteum isn't fully solidified, or something like that. (I know it should be by 13 or so, but again, family history. ) Anyways, it's really cool to see my teeth change week by week. I'm starting week 3 today, and I just noticed that one of my already erupted canines is a lot longer than it used to be. I didn't even know it wasn't fully out before! I'm generally just really excited about the whole process.

This was pretty cool to see. Had like 3 years of braces at around 10 years old and hated it, also got a few teeth pulled. Now very thankful because the teeth fit well in the mouth and look rather nice as a bonus. The downside is that occasionally when very stressed out, I see nightmares or dreams where I still have braces (especially the behind the neck ones that look so embarrassing) in public and feel the pull constantly.

This was so helpful! I just got my braces yesterday and im already sore which I know is expected this early and this was so great to help explain in such detail what's going on

Maybe they know something I don't, and it's very possible you have a circumstance that would warrant it (waiting on teeth to erupt, an impacted tooth somewhere, etc.) So, there are a handful of circumstances where it is warranted, but there are many out there who do it on every single patient. I have placed the top and bottom braces on thousands of people on the same day, and I average about 18-20 months total treatment time. I think you'll do great with the "classic" method 😁 Good luck!

Hey doc! Very informative and clear video demonstration. I was wondering what is the main difference of a typodont simulator that is made out of wax or polycaprolactone. Which of these 2 are a closer simulation to real gums and which of these are easier to work with?

@BaronDHall

2 жыл бұрын

That is a great question that is not easily answered. Polycaprolactone is more of a plastic that has wax-like properties, but both are insoluble in water and will melt at certain temperatures. Neither of them will behave like gums unless you get a soft wax. The reason that I used polycaprolactone instead of wax is because it will be slightly firmer than wax when melted and it turns clear when melted so I can show the root movement. I hope this is what you were asking, but please let me know if you need further clarification. Thanks for watching!

THIS WAS SO HELPFUL, THANK YOU!!!

Cool demonstration!

I've always been curious how braces work. I chose the car over straight teeth as a teen. Now at 41 I still look like SpongeBob and am finally getting braces this month. Our 12 year old son just got his so I opted to go through this with him. It will be memorable!!

Good luck!

this was cool! I had braces for 9 months, which is super short but my teeth weren't bad. I was very self-conscious of my two front teeth as they overlapped. Don't regret getting them at all. There were a pain in the beginning as I had to get one of the squares on the back molar moved closer to the gum due to the shape of the tooth (it doesn't have a smooth side, more like a steep slant) and it was in the way of my natural bite (actually ended up causing the square to come off the tooth due to the bite). I also have hypoplasia of the teeth and nails so my teeth are much weaker than normal teeth, so probably also made them easier to manipulate?

Hypoplasia doesn't make teeth move faster, so who knows. Maybe you're just lucky? Thanks for watching the video!

Brilliant demonstration!

I have had braces in for a few days and with the amount of crowding I had going on, on the bottom row of teeth, I'm really excited to see what my mouth looks like in 2 years!

Just got my braces today, it’s really hard to eat and everything feels weird/sore but I’m gonna stick through with it🤞🏽

This is a pretty cool video! I literally have never thought about roots having to move like that. I had braces for 4 years and it was definitely torture, but braces were 100% worth it to get straight teeth. Six years later I still wear my retainers at night because I don’t want to chance getting needing braces again. And a question. I just finished a dental assisting program in my state and I’ve been thinking about maybe working at an orthodontist instead of a dentist. I know each state has different requirements, but in general do orthodontic assistants need different/special training than dental assistants? I really loved learning how to take impressions and make retainers. I’m also legally allowed to radiate people. 😆

@@basetoace3951 Yeah! I’m sorry for such a slow response. Just look into what the requirements are for the state you live in, because I think it varies a lot. So the program I enrolled in was pretty quick, it lasted 3 months. My class had dental assistants teaching and a dentist would come and we would assist with patients. It was a good experience, I just had to get over nerves of actually helping assist the dentist with real people. We had to take the state Radiology exam which was one of the most nerve wracking parts (so that we could legally take x-rays of peoples teeth). We also had to have an internship actually working in a dental office while going through school so that helped quite a bit doing hands on while learning. I learned A lot about teeth, but I feel like there’s still SO much to learn. If you’re thinking about it, I think you should go for it. I’m glad I did!

Wow! That’s really insightful! Though, does make me wonder even more as to why they cost anywhere from $7,000 to $10,000 in Aus. It just seems like a lot of money for some metal & rubber bands & even the labour. I can’t wrap my head around that.

It's also the $250,000 in student debt, the $100,000 x-ray machine, the staff salaries, misc equipment, etc. and not just "a bunch of brackets and wires." In addition, I glossed over quickly in the video, but there is a fine art to the placement of the brackets. If they do not get placed in the correct positions then the teeth will not move correctly. There's also the age-old question: what happens if things don't go according to plan? In almost every case there will be something unexpected happen, and that's when you rely on the knowledge and expertise of the orthodontist. That knowledge is very valuable, just like the knowledge and expertise of a medical doctor. I hope that makes sense 😁

thank you, I feel so much better with this knowledge. I'm 35 and started my braces journey 9 months ago. But it's so unfortunate that I got myself an ortho that's not friendly at all when answering my questions, it feels like she's treating my questions as if they're an attack to her skill? I'm not sure but my ortho doesn't entertain questions and it just heightened my anxiety. It's hard to switch orthos, so guess I just have to google my way out of this, sadly. Thanks so much for this info

Thank you for sharing the knowledge! I just have a few doubts: Do you think patients with overbite but straight teeth mostly need braces, or is it just for aesthetics? Also, there is this fact or myth going on for years that braces after teenage can weaken up your bite. Is this true? What is the latest age at which you can get optimal results from braces without any sacrifice on time or strength of your teeth?

@BaronDHall

1) Yes, a non-ideal bite can potentially cause problems in the future. 2) No. You can have braces at any age, it's just faster and typically easier when starting at a younger teen-ish age.
