    I got braces!!!
    I have been thinking about getting braces to fix my overbite and crowded bottom teeth for many years now and finally I did it. Late last year (2022) I consulted my dentist reg. getting braces. After getting my chipped wisdom tooth removed, I finally started the braces process in March 2023. On 13th of April, I got my braces!
    This video chronicles the journey, answers some of the pressing (no pun) questions and reveals my new look. Enjoy :)
    Thanks to my Dentist, Dr. Ryan Ku from Johnsonville Dental Centre.

    I'm really happy to see that you're taking care of yourself! 100% it's never too late to get braces.

    its perfectly fine , one of the orthodontist I have consulted also got his braces in his 40s
    I am 22 , its been a month I got my braces . really excited how it transforms my facial appearance after braces😀😃

    @ummesalmasu Před rokem +6

    Hi Chandoo.. I had braces when I was growing up pretty much similar problem that you mentioned. They do help. The thing is when you are done with the treatment the jawline which doesn't change tries to put the teeth back into the old position. Once your treatment is over try following up regular checks help you identify the issues and retainers are something that are highly recommended for lifetime. Good luck 🤞

    Congratulations! I hope you realize that taking care of yourself at any age is a great thing. I'm your age and I'm getting braces on monday. It took me a couple of days to even call my orthodontist to get started as I kept thinking I was too old and would look silly. So I watched a few videos of "older" people getting then and they all said it was one of the best decisions they have made. Good luck with your adult braces adventure!

      Thank you and wish you all the best with your Braces on Monday. My tip: eat some of your fav foods this weekend as the first few weeks after braces are hard for eating anything.

  • @nickhancock589
    @nickhancock589 Před rokem +4

    I'm 59 and I'm almost done with my adjustments. I had braces when I was younger, but this time around I used the plastic trays that can pop off and be changed every week. Way less painful as the adjustments are smaller and more often, but you cannot eat when the trays are in. You need to wear the trays at least twenty hours a day and preferably twenty-two, so it's they are like a food chastity belt on your teeth. Good luck.

    • @chandoo_
      @chandoo_  Před rokem +1

      "food chastity belt" 😂
      The doctor suggested having retainers for rest of the life after the treatment is done.

    @corinnecowper1339 Před rokem +2

    It's really important to correct bite so you've definitely done the right thing for yourself. My younger daughter is congenitally absent half of her adult teeth so she had braces from 8 years to 12 years. Her bottom teeth needed to be moved forward to encourage the lower jaw to grow and move her top teeth closer together as well. She looks like she has a normal amount of teeth now. It's just amazing what orthodontists can do. You won't regret your decision. I didn't realise you lived in NZ - I'm just across the ditch in Sydney, Australia.

  • @amandas6600
    @amandas6600 Před rokem +1

    Thank you SO MUCH for posting this video! I'm 41, also in NZ, and I will be getting braces fitted this year. My top infant canines never came out, and my adult canines have just grown in around them, leading to overcrowding and my teeth being in positions where they should not be. I will need to have my two infant top canines removed, which will leave gaps, and then work with an orthodontist to have my teeth moved into the correct position. I'm mostly anxious about the cost of it all. It was good to see someone else going through the process in NZ. Good luck, it's never too late!!!

    How are you braces going?
    I am 39, will be 40 in May and I am considering braces. My top teeth are out further than the bottom, have a few crooked, and of course only my front incisors touch when I smile and show my teeth if I try to set them on top of each other.
    I keep going back and forth on this, but your video is giving me more confidence to go ahead and do it. Thank you.
