Braces
I have a video on braces on the girlgoddesses101 channel, but for some reason my computer is being funny and won't let me attatch it to this webpage. Check it out on youtube.com!!!
Orthodontist Lingo
Now, when we go to the orthodontist, you may hear them say "Can you please get me 1034-FJ?" and they are basically speaking a different language.. Now, I don't know those terms, but when the orthodontist says the "human language" word for what they are cementing into your mouth, I know all about it.
Braquet: The little square thingys on your teeth
Wire: the wire that goes across your teeth
Chains: the solid color that looks like colored wire.
Bite ramp: A tiny ramp that can go behind any of your top teeth to prevent you from biting down all the way
Springs: A long coil that is usually put in place accross your mouth if you have any missing teeth
Rubberbands: attatches to the top of your mouth to the bottom of your mouth. this improves your bite, if you have an over bite or cross bite
