Braces in Los Angeles

Orthodontists in Los Angeles California

My daughters next appointment is in 10 weeks and I am concerned the elastic powerchain will not be effective after 10 weeks. She has one on the top arch going across all her teeth and one on the bottom arch.
Thanks

I am just looking for some answers as i am getting them adjusted every 4 weeks and i have spoken to other people that have had braces and they say every 6 – 7 weeks. The 4 week adjustment time is my idea as i do not want to have them for very long, so my orthadontist said i can have them adjusted earlier. Has anyone experienced this and has the estimated time been shortened.

Do they change them out every time you go in or never? My friends can change there colors every time they go in, will I be able to with the metal brackets I have in now or are metal brackets like one of the colors you can get? Sorry about the questions, I’m just a little confused here.
Thanks,
John

I just got my braces put on a few months ago and the first time i went in they wouldn’t let me pick a color does it hurt?
