[SweetThinkers]

y was your mouth bleeding?

[BridezillaMartina]

@SweetThinkers It wasn't bleeding. Maybe you saw lipstick or something.

[deltadrew76]

Thank you for these videos of you in the chair you really should do more cheers!!!! :)

[BridezillaMartina]

@deltadrew76 I would like to do more of these in the future. Thanks for watching!

[JOIProject]

Sorry, I meant what was the cost for your braces/ orthodontic treatmeant?

[BridezillaMartina]

@JOIProject They were $6,300 but got a 5% discount for paying for my treatment up front & in full. My treatment cost $5, 985 with the discount.

[DiamondButterflyz]

@BridezillaMartina Mine was 4000 and I got both top and bottom done. Was that a fair price for you?

[BridezillaMartina]

@DiamondButterflyz Did you get the clear Damon braces system? The clear are ones are more expensive than just plain metal. That could be why mine where more than yours. I had consultations at 3 other ortho offices in my city before selecting my orthodontist, and all of them quoted me prices that were over $6,000.

[JOIProject]

Hey great videos, I noticed on your lower right side that there is a significant gap towards the back (might be premolar or molar tooth)...did you have any teeth pulled for the braces and what was the cost?

[BridezillaMartina]

@JOIProject Hey! They were both failed root canals and had to be removed. One of them was removed years ago, and the other was removed last December. I don't remember the cost though. The removals weren't braces related though, and I will get two implants to fill the space after my braces come off.

I have noticed a change in your voice from high school to now. When it comes to braces you got more guts than I do. Didn't tongue placement can affect how you can sound. Ah the things you learn

[BridezillaMartina]

@BigboyHollywood LOL, what was my sound in HS?

[BigboyHollywood]

@BridezillaMartina you had more of a lisp back then

[Treece55]

I got mine on Jan 2008 and they were removed Sept 2010...So stick in there!

[BridezillaMartina]

@Treece55 Thanks girly! Hopefully the time will fly :)

[britrob24]

When they cut the wire... where does the broken part go? LOL I didn't see him remove anything after cutting. Forgive me I don't know too much about braces... yet.

[BridezillaMartina]

@britrob24 I think the broken part is attached to the clippers. I was worried about that too the 1st time, but it went fine. Nothing fell in my mouth or anything.

[ninam06]

I love when the dentist talks to you with his fingers in your mouth and actually understands what you say. Lol. Your teeth are coming along very nicely. Congratulations.

[BridezillaMartina]

@ninam06 Lol, I know right. It's funny how they understand.

[doolz4life]
