How to get my braces off sooner?

blah blah blah Asked by broadwaystar101 about 1 year ago, 12 answers.

Are there any tips to getting your braces off sooner? I really want to get mine off soon, so is there anything I can do to speed up the process?

broadwaystar101,
The bad part about this is, I don't think there is a way to get them off early. Which does suck because I know they are super anoying sometimes. The good part is that the wait is well worth while. Once they are off you will probley have a perfect smile forever, that was worth waiting for. Its better then getting them off early and your teeth going back to the way they origionally were. Thats why braces have to be left on so long, because if not the teeth will force themselves back. It is a long process, but be patient and you'll be happy you waited.

sadly there really isn't much you can do, except to be sure you wear your rubber bands and headgear (if you have any) as much as you can! and be careful to not break any brackets. when I had braces, I was supposed to only have them on for 1 year, but because I never wore my headgear at night, and hardly wore my rubber bands during the day, I ended up having to have braces for over THREE years. oh, and to top it off, once I got the braces off, I hardly wore my retainers, so now basically my whole bottom row of teeth are back to being crooked :'[

you can't get your braces off sooner. All you can do is wait until your teeth are ready and straight. It'll be worth the wait! Just think about your teeth after you have them off. That'll keep you going! It does for me. I get so upset about mine, feel like ripping them off. Just enjoy them while you have them! xx

Hi im lucy id actually wrong.
1. Thinking about my teeth afterwards makes me almost cry because I don't wear my rubber bands often.
2. I don't feel like ripping them off because after I get two teeth ripped out.
3. You don't just wait. You wear your rubber bands every second of the day. Switch them every two hours. Glue them to your hand so you don't forget. Brush your teeth with as much toothpaste as possible. Rinse out your mouth with mouthwash and let it sit in your mouth for 3 minutes. After just swish around water until no toothpaste is left.
4. Broken bracket? Congrats you've added three months to your braces.
5. Getting a power chain will hurt.
6. Be sure to not only floss 4 times a day, take something you can use to scrape any remaining food particles.
7. Got them ripped off? I know how you feel. Don't worry, you can whiten them soon...

Oh I know how you feel! I hate my braces; they are so vain. It's basically getting your teeth caged in pain for false beauty. how horrible! I don't follow any of the rules. I was supposed to get mine off 2 months ago but I still have to wear them. I never asked why because the topic depresses me too much. Just try to forget about them because then the time passes faster.

this sucks I cant stand myy braces at all I got them on today and I hate them I want to cry and what if I dont like the results!!

Answered by happychick94 on Aug 15, 2009, 10:34AM

actually there is a way to get your braces sonner and that is by following the rules your ortho tell you to follow and use the rubber bands...I have had my braces for about 5months and I have seen an anormous change in my teeth and you know wanna know y? okay I will tell you ..that is because I ate what I was soppost too and brushed my teeth evertime I got the chance and I have a feeling I wouldn't have to keep my braces on for long so yeah just do what you're soppost too and u'll be happy
TRUST ME !

I'm getting my braces off on Wednesday, a year sooner then I was supposed to, by simply telling my mom I want them off. So yes, you can get your braces off sooner by asking and being ready for whatever the results are. I'm not getting a retainer since I didn't go through the whole process I was planned out to, but the ortho can't tell you how your teeth are going to be and there's no crystal ball to tell you your teeth will go back or stay the way they are. Good luck..
