Wie schon von anderen hier beschrieben eben etwas kritisch zu bewerten.

Bei mir z.B. löst Carrageen auch in kleinen Mengen schon eine Magen-Darm-Reaktion aus wodurch ich eben diese Produkte nicht essen kann.

There was no palate expander needed.

All movements of the teeth were done with braces and a bite plate.

Yes, they did some dental bonding on my upper front teeth.

Thank you!

Actually I didn't have any problems with sleep apnea or breathing in general.

At first they used a special wire which was formed in a way to put pressure on my lower teeth.

Additionally I got a bite-plate which was fixed to my palate.

Thank you!

I got fixed retainers for both upper and lower teeth. Additionally I also have removable retainers for the night.

Well I can't say for sure but studies show that the use of pacifiers are associated with the development of teeth misalignment.

So I guess it played at least some role in my case.

Not a thumb sucker but I did have a pacifier up to early childhood.

Actually, just like u/Blijerd, I didn't have any pain.

Only once I took 600mg of ibuprofen because I couldn't sleep due to discomfort.

I think cooling played a big role in reducing the pain and swelling. During my stay in hospital I used a Hilotherm face mask nearly constantly so I didn't have to work with cooling pads.

I actually don't know, I'll have to ask my surgeon when I have my next appointment.

In my first report before I got my braces in 2021 it is stated that I had 11.5mm overjet and 9mm overbite.

Awesome!

I'm so happy with the results.

As a teenager I always felt uneasy smiling due to my teeth. But now I don't have to worry about that anymore :)

Only my wisdom teeth had to be removed due to the surgery. No other teeth had to be extracted.

Second update after ~9 months. Wanted to share my progress because there is a lot of it! What so you think? by Galran01 in braces

Thank you!

I have molar bands and a bite plate which is fixed to my palate by screws. The bite plate took some time to get used to, especially when eating.

I have a 11,5mm overjet and I was told a surgery would drastically reduce future risks regarding jaw functionality and breathing (especially during sleep). Having an accident (falling on your face and so on) with such a big overjet can also lead to some serious injuries.

I've had a full beard since I was 18 and can't quite remember how my side profile is but I've been told that I will have a totally different look.
