I got braces today!(: but one quick question bout them? someone please help!

Question

okay soo, today i got my braces but my orthodonest only put on the brackets. is that normal? but i'm going to get my wire on thursday. so yeah.

Answer 1

yeah it totally normal dont sweat it'

Answer 2

Yup, its normal, thats what they did for me. I think they want to make sure the brackets are all set and won't slide around before they add the pressure of the wire.

Answer 3

Next time you see the dentist ask him about invisaline braces that correct your teeth but no one can see them.

Answer 4

well i got all mine on the first day. it didn't feel bad until they put the wire in. that made me have tension. you'll be fine.

Answer 5

yeah that happened to me too. i got my brackets and spacers on a thursday and the wire two weeks later.  

Answer 6

yeah thats totally normal! i just got my braces on today too!!  

Answer 7

Yes. Depending on how long you will have them, brackets may need replacing now and again too.

Good Luck Sweetie.

Answer 8

Yeah don't worry its completely normal. They did that to me when I first got braces. It turned out that one of the brackets fell off so it was good that there was no wire or it would have been a bigger problem. Actually, this might save you from some pain, because you might have the slight pain of them putting on the brackets, but then you don't have the added on pain of the wires pulling your teeth. The fact that you get your wire on Thursday should mean that your teeth stop hurting by then.
