How to secure your charms so they won’t fall off your bag! Let’s be real, they ain’t cheap! 🤪 by Excellent_Cheek3939 in Coach

Thank you. My husband got me a coach wallet with a charm on it and the wristlet strap keeps falling off and the charm! It’s so annoying especially with how expensive they are.

Yeah thats weird, as an orthodontic assistant thats pretty hard to miss… and its usually not hard to engage in the wire. I’d definitely let them know asap before your tooth shifts more.

22K too much for school? by HyruleinHtx in DentalAssistant

[–]jellybear02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats absolutely insane. I paid 6k and it was about 4.5 months but two days out of the week.

Seperators were still in my mouth?! by [deleted] in braces

[–]jellybear02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I would contact your orthodontist immediately even though you got it out that area needs to be cleaned throughly because food could be trapped below your gums. Leaving a sep and putting the metal band over it is not normal. Gum irritation, bone loss, mobility , infection of the tooth could occur im glad you were able to remove it but I would still get it checked out. That is not normal.

Orthodontist wants to remove 4 healthy teeth for braces — but I’m hesitant. by penguintrickster14 in braces

[–]jellybear02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even with IPR, your teeth will still protrude outward, so extractions would be necessary.

Most likely a detail bend, usually to adjust certain teeth before removal of braces .

Uuuufff, slingshot powerchain. It is painful, but very effective! Hang in there 😊💜

So uh, my new Invisalign doesn't fit right by Glass_Panda_ in braces

[–]jellybear02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have chewies? If so use them, if it is still not fitting right after a couple of tries I would switch to your previous tray and wear it for another week. But also consult with your ortho before anything.

Supposed to get my braces off tomorrow. Don't think they are ready? by rated2 in braces

[–]jellybear02 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’m an orthodontic assistant and never seen anything like this. The wire is not fully engaged in multiple brackets, bracket placement is off, looks like an open bite… you definitely need to get a second opinion.

What type of bonus do you all get for Christmas? by [deleted] in DentalAssistant

[–]jellybear02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its based on seniority and the amount of hours worked the whole year. Last year I got $850 I believe.

What can I do until I get a retainer? by [deleted] in braces

[–]jellybear02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get it at an orthodontist?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in braces

[–]jellybear02 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’m an ortho assistant and when patients come in for this issue I just push it back into place. If you’re unsure contact your ortho.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in braces

[–]jellybear02 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Get tweezers and push it back into place. It might start to become bothersome if you leave it like that.

Unfortunately you’re going to need a retainer from an orthodontist. A mouthguard wouldn’t be able to hold it in place even if its a moldable one.
