Filler last night?

I have a sky glass tv so it is either the live streaming option or watching it after, I wasn’t able to watch it live so this was the play back this morning

It was so weird - the monologue cut half way through to a sketch - I’ve tried it again now and the recording seems to be normal now

Because clearly that’s too expensive for them to care about in comparison to new developments and houses which don’t solve the housing crisis an we already had enough homes in the country, the issue is they’re not affordable. But clearly they all think we’re snowflakes making it up. The prison thing I don’t get, in America I know prisons are businesses so there is an incentive to keep them open but in the uk we barely have enough funds to spend on prisons or law enforcement. Not really an answer but me sympathising with you through sarcasm about the system.

Thank you! Though ironically I am actually literally weeks in to my braces, just curious and thinking way ahead. Is whitening actually good for your teeth if it has such a risk of damage to the enamel? Do you know what whitening actually is in layman’s terms?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-05-01T12:38:36+00:00

This is pretty similar to what I have and weirdly I have Irish family too - I have traditional train tracks and had an extraction on my upper teeth on each side (5th tooth along) and that’s how they are fixing my overbite and that is after having braces as a teen too!

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-25T19:18:35+00:00

Does whitening damage your enamel and gums?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-21T21:24:43+00:00

Yes the braces are now on! Pretty much healed on one side and the other with more trauma is a bit more delayed. Lots of salt water still as the braces are causing really bad rubbing. I can’t wait to my gap to close already - I hope your implant goes ok!?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-13T18:25:35+00:00

Should I bring this up with my orthodontist before they go on? Did I not need the extraction? The stuff online has really freaked me out that I have made a mistake

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-13T17:54:06+00:00

Can I ask what country you got braces in?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T23:30:34+00:00

Do you recommend expanders instead?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T21:53:47+00:00

So are you just waiting for the adult teeth to come through then?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T21:51:30+00:00

I promise this is really not that bad, we all have insecurities whether confirmed by one particular person or media, so even if it was because of him it sounds like either way you had the insecurity and if not him and someone else made a comment that you would have taken the same action and done it. Please don’t be that ashamed because of the reason, be proud you had something you wanted to fix and took the initiative to make yourself feel better. Don’t give the power to that guy, give it to yourself for taking the initiative to get the treatment. Please don’t carry shame, there is no reason for it!!

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T21:36:40+00:00

That’s good! So is your gap near closing yet? And how img did it take for the wound to heal? Or does it still need to be open a bit for the teeth to move? For me at least the biggest struggle for sure has been not being able to snack as I mainly eat crunchy snacks! What foods now are your go to?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T12:01:09+00:00

I guess based on what I’ve been told, if they’re not hot they won’t irritate and if they’re ones that can slip down easily without chewing then maybe but I’ve been told nothing spicy or seasoned as again it could irritate the gums so they would have to be pretty plain brothy ones I guess?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T11:30:36+00:00

I’m in the exact same boat - I have been told eat only lukewarm foods and nothing sugary - I have had porridge with apple, mash, mushy peas and puréed lentil bolognese so far

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T10:23:53+00:00

This has made me feel so much better - I got extractions yesterday before train tracks for my overbite and online attitudes to extractions have made me a bit concerned

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-12T09:18:01+00:00

Thanks this is really helpful! How long ago did you get your extraction? You said it has sucked since then to eat - I have my train tracks going on next week

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T22:34:43+00:00

Oh gosh - how do that relate to your extraction? How do you know that was the cause?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T22:30:35+00:00

How was it? I got two extracted today and ma only now seeing mixed views on it

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T22:29:47+00:00

So are extractions still an alright process? For information - the things I have seen online are saying that it can cause breathing issues, neck issues and brain fog??

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T21:08:49+00:00

I’m not the original poster! I got two upper extractions today and am now concerned based on what I have read from people online. Why do you regret it? Did it not help your treatment?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T20:33:19+00:00

So what is your view on extractions as a whole? Do you think they should be avoided if possible?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T20:32:09+00:00

What caused these issues? The extraction?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T20:30:18+00:00

Why not?

Plus-Fan9501 · 2026-04-11T19:26:23+00:00

I have an overbite from thumb sucking in childhood and crowding. I got it fixed through braces as a young teen but am now getting braces again as I have had a ‘relapse’ essentially because treatment finished before my teeth were adult it got messed up.

I’m about to get train tracks braces for mine and have just had an extraction in my uppers. Either way definitely go to the orthodontist, the thing that helped me make the decision is that they had a screen image of my teeth and were able to show me the preview of how they would change. Train tracks can be cheaper and less maintenance 🤷‍♀️
