it depends on the type of braces you have
Usually will make a mould of your mouth top and bottom. Then a week before your appointment to get braces he will put spacers in which are little bands that go in between your teeth. A week later he will put the braces in. That's mine and my friends experiences although i didn't have any extractions so I missed that bit out. Sekhmet
if your bottom teeth are okay and straight then they are not going to put braces in the bottom teeth , but if your top teeth are crooked and not straight , then you will only get braces at the top.
If you think about how much normal braces cost ( top and bottom) around £2500 or $3000 if you pay for them and the metal braces are probably cheap braces. You would also have to go to a specilist orthodontist.
Damian had regular silverish gray braces and sometimes he has different colored bands to go over them
The hinge side has the brace at the bottom with it going diagonally to the top lock side
Thats like asking can you go swimming and count that as your bath...So no you can not
It depends on the Dentist you go to. Some will let you have colored rubber bands for free.
your orthodontist should have told you before you left. they go on the teeth that have little metal things coming out of them
An o-ring goes around a bracket to keep the wire in place.
if they are attached to your bottom jaw, then its because they are moving your whole jaw back so it cant go as far as it could before, or because the back of the braces is anchored to your teeth.
the top one goes in the bottom and the bottom ones go in the top
to get braces quick, dont see your dentist about it. go straigh to a orthodontist. they will need to see if you are ready first, and if you are they will give you spacers for about a week (PAINFULLL!) then when you come in they may just give you top, or bottom or they may give you both. sometimes they only put the brackets on at first
