What nutritious things can you eat during orthodontic treatment + braces?

1. Can it be corrected to be parallel to the face?

This is basically okay. My situation is similar to yours, except that my upper teeth are a little bit protruding. When I was in school, my classmates would always laugh at me for having buck teeth... I’m depressed... Reply Let’s get to the point. I have been undergoing correction for almost a year now, and the effect is still relatively good. From the side, it is now much flatter than before. Buck teeth need to be extracted, and the number of teeth to be extracted is determined based on the degree of protrusion of your teeth. Normally, tooth No. 4 will be extracted.

2. There is no impact on the oral cavity during the dental surgery process, but you must pay attention to oral hygiene and avoid eating anything that is too hard or sticky, etc. The doctor will advise you if you are going to do it in the future.

3. Dental surgery will not cause harm to the body, but you cannot eat many hard things, which may affect nutrition, but these are minor problems. , it’s just that eating will be more troublesome.

4. The length of time, depending on your current age, it should take at least one and a half to two years. My doctor told me that In two years (I am 20 years old), because the teeth and bones of adults have matured, the movement will be slower than that of childhood.

5. Now is the choice of braces, my suggestion is still with steel strips No matter in terms of economy, effect, or speed, I recommend steel braces.... The effect of steel is better than that of transparent braces (this is proven by practice. A friend of mine wears transparent braces, but the effect is not as good as mine) Good vs. fast) Because you emphasized speed, steel braces are faster than transparent braces. Transparent braces cannot be applied too hard, so the force applied each time cannot be too strong. In this case, the time will be relatively longer. .In addition, the transparent price will be about 3,000 yuan more expensive than the steel one (this is the price in Shenzhen, and the price differences vary from place to place)

In addition, the self-confidence issue you mentioned, I used to be like you, but last year After getting braces, I didn’t feel so scared to face my classmates and friends. Now, I feel that my smile is brighter and more hearty than before. In fact, it’s better to smile naturally!

I can't give you any advice on the cost of correction. I had it done in Shenzhen, and the cost is estimated to be around 12,000.

One more thing, if you want to have correction Just hurry up and don't delay anymore, otherwise the older you get, the longer the correction time will be. I regret the time I wasted by hesitating in the past two years, otherwise I would have taken off the braces long ago... Sigh. ..Hope these suggestions can help you.

Have a happy day!
