Braces are annoying me?????

Question

Okay. The braces i got on today, but i already got use to them, and have been in no pain yet. But its like that glue stuff they use to put the braces on. I got it of the back of my top tooth (and a little on the front) and its just very annoying to me. And I got like 2 dots on 2 different teeth in front. And just cause its me, its driving me insane. Like i would look at myself, and try to get it off, and even when my mouth is closed, i just know its there, and i can't stop thinking about it. Don't say anything mean. Its like my little problems, I always been this way. And always want to be perfect even though i know i can't. I am just woundering if they can take it off my next visit, at least the one that got on the side i can't see of my tooth, cause that one is annoying me, by thoughts and by my overbite teeth hitting it. Would they be able to take it off at the end of this month, at my next visit? I already tried, its not coming off from me.

Answer 1

Its not a big deal really. Your mouth just isnt used to all the metal and glue in it yet. after a coupel of days they wont even bother you anymore. Everytime you go back there they'll add stuff and take it off and it most likely wont look perfect :) DONT try to rip ANYTHING off because its there for a reason. If you rip it off before its done its job, it'll set your teeth straightening back a month or more

Answer 2

just sleep on it.. you will get used to it or go back tomorrow if its still bothering you and tell them to fix it!! goodluck. :)

Answer 3

Most likely it is just some extra dental cement left over from putting your braces on. Yes, they will be able to remove it for you.

Hope that makes you feel better!

Answer 4

yeah you should let them know at your next visit and they should be able to take it off; there shouldn't be any glue on your teeth except for under (unseen) where the braces are attached to your teeth

Answer 5

The dots are temporary on the brackets to make sure the brackets are applied on the correct teeth and will come off in a day or so with good brushing. The extra adhesive should come off, too, but if it doesn't, be sure to tell them when you go back and they can remove it for you! You may be able to pick it off yourself, but be super careful to not pop off a bracket!
