Currently i have a grey/silver color for my rubberbands in my braces.
I have a dentist appointment coming up and i’m planning to change the color. I’m in my mid teens so i’m wondering what color won’t look tacky?
I was planning to get a baby blue color at first, but now i think it might stand out too much? Should i just stick with grey?

Or do I go to a university and start on my Bachelor’s?

How much does it cost?
How old do you have to be?
Is it easier than braces?
Less painful?

I sprained my ankle, so my trainer & doc said I need to get braces to help prevent ankle sprains, well it seems when i put them on & start playing, my ankles burn, and the inside of my foot on the bone hurts. Last game my trainer at school put a padding on the bone & taped it then i put the brace on, it helped but I still felt like a robot on the court & it still hurt. Any advice?

I got 4 teeth pulled out, two on top and two on buttom. So i have the wire with no teeth and just a big gap. The wire bended upwards on my top teeth, but i pushed down and the wire just kind of fell down straight how it was before. should i go see my orthodontist or just wait 2 weeks for my next appointment?

So, What should I expect?
Do I have to bring anything important?
What do they do?
I just need some info because I go for the first time next Tuesday

The orthodontist gave me a very thick splint about 3 months ago to wear at night. It has helped a little bit, but very slowly. Every time I go to the orthodontist, he just tells me to wear the appliance more. I would like to explore more treatment methods by going to a TMJ specialist, but our insurance doesn’t cover it and my mom doesn’t want to pay thousands of dollars. My jaw has locked more than twice in the past and it clicks almost every time I open my mouth. Would a TMJ specialist be a good option?

is it ok if i just take it out in front of people to eat. Is it bad manner, does it give them gross feeling seeing me pulling the tray out?
