Uhh help please.?!


Question: Uhh help please...?
I've had braces for 2 years now.. Still have them on.. I am getting a herbst appliance..
Some patients have to have braces and a herbst appliance on with their teeth still crocked..
My teeth are straight.. So why is my orthordontist waiting for my teeth to become straight before I get a herbst appliance.. Is it because I don't have to wear braces wtih it.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
i have a herbst i got it with my top braces
the herbst really isnt that bad but they do make space for your teeth to shift thats why i got only 6 brackets right now it doesnt look that back you cant ell if you dont know about it,Health Question & Answer

A Herbst appliance is nessesary for the development and growth of your lower jaw in relations with your upper jaw.. It is highly complex to decide when and if you'r going to need a Herbs appliance in you treatment..
So no matter what other people have experienced with their treatment, it does not mean that it will happen to you..
It is possible to have a Herbst appliance without the brackets, my guess would be that your orthodontist will use the existing brackets for fixating the appliance..
Since none of us here at Yahoo knows how your specific situation is, I would advice you to trust you Ortho-specialist
Good luck with you treatment..

My ortho.. actually said that he's not going to let me get the Herbst Appliance, because he said it's totally uncomfortable and that I would totally hate it going into highschool, because it makes you look really goofy.. I'm told it makes your bottom jaw stick out, and it's constantly like that..Health Question & Answer
