I am getting my mouth fitted for braces in a few days, and i dont know how long it takes to get them on after you get fitted. i want them as soon as possible so i can just get it over with. do you think i could get them the same day?

I got my braces on and the little rubber tie is slightly coming off in one corner but the rest of it is still hooked on.
is it bad?
Can i just hook it back myself?

like during the treatment, while at home you lose your aligner? if you go back to doctor for a new one, do they charge you extra money to replace it ?

I am going for my first ortho. appontment on november 19 and i know i need braces so im just wonder how long after that appontment i will get the braces put on!

I was told that I would wear braces for 2 years on my first visit to the orthodontist. My insurance paid their part at that time and I make monthly payments on the balance. My question is will they take them off even if my teeth arent perfect because they only agreed on a 2 year treatment plan? If I still need them after the 2 years will I have to pay for them again out of pocket?

I’m just curious, I was wondering about things like going out to dinner or a night at the pub or if I forgot to take it somewhere with me. How long can i leave it out for and how bad would it be?

I was told by ortho that both would take about five months, my problem is minor. I cant decide between ceramic or invisalign, i like that fact that invisalign is clear but i heard that braces are more precise/exact and that invisalign is 80% satisfaction. I had both before! My teeth shifted both times, this time I want to get it right and wear retainer!

This will be my last appointment and she has always been friendly to me; I think we’ve even become friends

The tray was tight and snug yesterday when I put tray 3 in for the first time, however today after I popped them back in, I noticed that they weren’t as tightly fitting as they were yesterday. I can literally wiggle the back parts of the tray up and down! Have I damaged the trays (there aren’t any cracks etc)? Anyone can help? Thanks
