I will talk about how the braces would give me (this is a private procedure and all will be different, but I think my experience will help You to make at least a rough idea).

First, You will make a picture of the teeth and the cast.

Here's how it looks.

Further examination of consultation. Set a date, time, the procedure itself is an hour-an hour and twenty. You sit down in a chair, smear the lips with vaseline (so they do not dried up). Insert in mouth tube "suction" the liquid in your mouth. Completely dry mouth, using something like a small Hairdryer. Clean the teeth, dry each tooth separately. On each bracket smeared with special glue (it holds the entire time of treatment). And one bracket on each tooth starts to glue and Shine some blue light so that the glue came from.

After I put in all the braces put Arc.

It is inserted and clipped off the ends to fit the mouth.

But, frankly speaking, have to wear braces quite uncomfortable-especially at first. The first 2 weeks the braces are annoying You, because it's unusual to feel the iron under the lip. Later you get used to it and don't notice their presence. Each month, make an appointment and replace the arc on tighter.

Next. Food, Care, Bite.

The first 2 weeks it is better to eat porridge, mashed potatoes, food from the blender. Later for the duration of treatment it is desirable to have only soft food.

It is strictly forbidden to chew bubble gum and chews nuts. Because these processes of gluttony can cause the bracket simply slips!

Care. You need after each meal to brush your teeth. To do this, you will be given (or buy) special toothbrushes. In the middle they do not have bristles (pictured obscured). They cost from 400 rubles.

And of course you have to be very careful. The dentist said not to drink alcoholic beverages and cigarettes.

For bite correction using special gum. In the specialized clinics they usually are free of charge and in any quantity. It is their I now use (after installing the braces, it took almost two years). They are divided by size. To know the size of the bands need to look at the picture. I was given the Chipmunks, Antelopes, sheep and Foxes. The smaller the size, the stronger the pull. For comparison, in the photo I put the little rubber band on the left (the Chipmunk).

Their pull with the lower jaw to the top or Vice versa. And go with them 24/7, should only be removed during meals.
