Welcome to my blog. I'm having braces fitted at the age of nearly 56, and I thought you might find my experiences useful, if you are thinking of doing it too.

Attaching Bracket to Wire on Incognito Brace - Quick Visit to Orthodontist!


Today, my orthodontist was able to attach the complete bracket to the Incognito wire. Luckily it hadn't come unstuck again, so my visit was one of the quickest that I've ever had, because the tooth had been moved near enough to the wire to fix it on easily.
This softer wire should help get my teeth back into line ready for the harder wire we tried before to be fixed on. My next appointment is just before Christmas, but he said that we might wait until the New Year so it would be more comfortable over the holidays.
He assessed how much they had moved, and how much they had to move, and thinks he may polish a little off the bottom of the middle ones to give them a better shape.
