  • No. We use special denal instruments which wont allow you to be sick.

  • How much longer have you got left of your treatment?

  • There is no need to be numbed. It's just like painting your fingernails - a clear varnish is applied and the bracket is attached -similar to placing a false fingernail.

  • No it doesn't hurt- fitting the braces is just like painting your fingernails, there's a clear varnish coated on the teeth and the brackets are just placed on each tooth.

    Getting used to braces is just like wearing in a new pair of shoes, it will feel tight the first few days but as you wear the shoes they become comfortable, and the braces will feel the same way.

  • Does it make you gag? I have an extreme gag reflex!

    There is always a little discomfort at the beginning of orthodontic treatment. Within a few days, the pressure settles down and you may get the occasional discomfort of a wire poking through at the back of your mouth.

  • Why don't you have something stretching your mouth? Your orthodontist must really trust you to keep your mouth open!
