Hi 

Probable TMJ, or some adjustments to be done on your ortho appliance. Have it check with your dentist or find an orthodontist to help you resolve it.

Probable causes of of it is Misaligned Bite, Cartilage wear and tear, dislocated TMJ.  (Jaws)

Hope this helps!

Finally! Makakapagpa-braces na ako. Hmmm. Nag part-time ako para may extra money. Unfortunatelt wlng napupuntahan pera ko kasi nagagastos lng tlga sa ibng bagay. So I decided na magpa-brace. Kht mahal, ok lng atleast investment yun at maayos na teeth ko sa wakas. 60K sya. Pero nakuha ko lng ng 32K. Promo kasi. Ayun.

Mas ok na ang mahal na braces kesa mag-peke kasi nakakatakot lng yun tlga.. )

Why don't you ask the new dentist kung anong gagawin? Baka kahit papaano pwedeng ayusin na hindi talaga from scratch.
 2 years pa lang naman. Yung classmate ko nga 5 years na.

Hi! Ngayon ko lang nabasa na may nagreply pala! Anyway, 4 months na ko ngayon sa bago kong dentist. Thanks pala sa reply!

Sa mga currently nakapowerchains ngayon: Gaano kabilis yung pagsara ng gaps gamit yun? Yun na raw ilalagay sa sunod kong pagpunta. Nakakakaba at nakakaexcite at the same time!

Hi 

Patients can get treated with dental braces 1-3 years at max with results but can exceed to deeper case. Dentist specializing in Braces are masters of orthodontic treatments, therefore if a general dentist can't help you out, time to see an orthodontist.

Some clinics have a minimal fee for check-ups,  others have them for free. so it won't hurt to have more expert advises. Your further questions above can be accurately answered a his/her clinic. Let them know that you opt for a "RE-TREATMENT".

Hope this helps

Doc Pamie

Hi Doc Pamie! Just read your reply! I opted for a re-treatment nga and upper na lang yung linagyan ng braces. Overjet yung case ko at hindi nagtatouch yung upper teeth ko sa lower. I also had two extractions sa taas. Powerchains na raw ako next na punta ko. Okay lang ba yun? Parang ang nakikita ko kasi sa karamihan, may elastics sila na kinakabit sa baba to pull the maxillary backward.

Thank you po pala for the reply.

yes it is. Kahit nga yung isang pirasong kanin hindi ko makagat dati e. That's normal kasi nagmo-move yung ipin so parang yung feeling ay katulad ng may umuugang ipin, the difference is lahat sila masakit. xD

Finally I'm brace free! 'twas just last month and now I have retainers naman  but mas prefer ko braces kasi nakakatamad minsan suotin yung retainers. 

[heystarapol]

hi,

I have visited an Ortho last night dahil un sa sumasakit ung ngipin ko pero dahil nmn un sa wisdom tooth na tumutubo.

Nung chini-check nya ako inassess din nya ung jaw alignment ko and sabi nya may crossbite daw ako and isang effect daw ng pagkkaron ko ng crossbite is ung meron akong irregular na menstruation w/c is true and pain sa shoulder area and migrane ( pero seldom lang nmn saken) and she recommended na mag pa brace ako. To correct it.

I am willing to have it naman except that its very pricey, 60 to 65 ung price na binigay saken. She mention about "Expander" and "Pallat" (not sure if i had those term correctly).

Sadly I wasn't able to ask kung ung mode of payment nun is cash na isang bagsakan lang or may downpayment sya and all.

Kau po ba when you had your braces isang bayaran lang din po ba sya? Do you have this kind of issue or condition?

I'm hoping to find a cheaper price. Pero syempre ung quality nmn... May ma rerecommend po ba kau?

Hi. First post ko to dito sa thread na to, I just wanna help. (:

Anyway, yung sa akin kasi nag down ako tapos every time na nagpapa-adjust ako nagbabayad ako. So, hindi ko binayaran ng minsanan yung akin.

Yung sa case mo naman, meron akong kakilala na ganyan yung reason kung bakit siya nagpabrace. Share lang.

Lastly, yung kung saan pwede, depende sa location mo yan, sis. Pwede kang magtanong sa mga kakilala mong may brace din or sa mga TTalkers na same location mo rin.

Sana may naitulong ako. >.<
