I had orthodontics because my teeth were a little uneven and, because of a habit, one tooth was angled outward. When I looked into getting orthodontic treatment, I found out that one molar was also facing outward rather than downward, so it ended up being quite a big job.. They placed screws, connected rubber bands... and for cosmetic reasons removed 4 teeth, plus 4 wisdom teeth, so in total 8 teeth were extracted lolㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅠㅠㅜ You never know what will happen in life, so I should have kept them at least for storage, so they could maybe be transplanted later. Of course, I heard that storing medical waste has complicated procedures, but still, those are teeth that will never grow back for me. Still, since 8 teeth were pulled, my face is definitely very slim. When I get Botox for my square jaw, the part I feel for when I clench my teeth is almost nonexistent? But because of that, even though I don’t really have prominent cheekbones, my cheekbones look more pronounced! I had orthodontic treatment for 3 years even though I was told it would be over in 1 to 2 years, so it was hard, but after orthodontics the retainer is said to need to be worn for 3 times the orthodontic period, and I was really shocked. Why didn’t they tell me that before treatment....? Then 3 years of orthodontics plus 9 years of retainer? And after orthodontics, they fix a wire inside the teeth so they don’t move, and at first it was falling off a lot, so I had a hard time ㅠㅠ It was fortunate that they reattached it for free for 1 or 2 years For the whole 2 years, every time I went it had come loose, so they reattached it. It still took a long time, and I got a discount through a personal connection, but since I spent so much money, I have been wearing the retainer well until now, so the maintenance is going well. If you’re not going to wear the retainer because it’s a hassle, then don’t even start orthodontics.....
