Same. I fell asleep when my orthodontist was using it on my braces. It's super ASMR like.
Done with my Bachelor's...Soon to be starting my first year in Master's in Orthodontics ...I really like how you select your topics related to the field...Love from India❤️❤️❤️
Hi! Can you please make a video about the process orthodontists go through when they take off they’re braces? I want to see if they do any bonding or if they fix chipped teeth. Keep up the good work! Thanks
These videos are really nice glimpses of what I hope I will be in the future.
I always use the Mathieu pliers to push the wire in place. Never knew I could use a Weingart plier for that! Good to know.👍🏼😊
I would love to learn more about the instruments used.
Please make more videos on instuments! I loved this one, very informative, and I want to learn more. thank you!
Honestly so cool we get this kind of content for FREE. Thanks Dr. Greg!
Hi Dr Greg! Thank you for this very informative video. Would you be willing to make a video of what you expect from your ortho assistants?? I'm binge watching all the Ortho videos I can before my working interview and think it would really benefit all the RDA and DA's out there making the switch from General to Ortho. Anyways this one really helped alot. Take care :)
Yaaas. Keep showing us more instruments.
I really enjoy your content. I subscribed a while back just before getting my braces but I always forget to like and comment. So here is a comment. Hope this helps your channel grow.
Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much for this video..I’m trying to learn what tools to use..this helps a lot Ty 🙏✌️😃
Thank you for these videos! I've been binging your vids. I just got my braces on may 7th..36 months to go. I'm gonna be 28 by the time they're off
I really want to know more about Orthodontics instruments , it would be great !

Thank you.
Matthieu those are great
I was supposed to get my braces off March 15. Two days into quarantine! But I still haven’t gotten them off and I am so sad:(
My dream is to be a Dentist and this channel is really help me to have a some background.
That's amazing! I have a few videos where I describe the process of becoming a dentist!
@@DrGregAsatrian yeah I already watch all of your videos. Im a big fan of yours and its really a big help to me. Thank you for creating your channel.
Hi Dr.Greg I am currently in high school but I am extremely interested in becoming an orthodontist based on my long, crazy journey with my teeth being worked on. I stumbled upon your channel and found your videos inspiring and very helpful. As many videos as i’ve seen on becoming an orthodontist yours has definitely been the best. Although i’m in high school I want to begin to plan out how exactly I will achieve my goal and I need advice and have some questions. I was wondering if I would be able to reach out to you or if you know any good resources or people to reach out to. Thanks!
wow super informative thanks a lot
Thanks
Share more videos about instruments
You may have a video on this (I haven't had a chance to look at all videos). I am getting my braces on in the middle of June. My Ortho is going to set my brackets high on my teeth - I trust his decisions but I'm wondering why some do it high on the teeth vs lower. Thanks for all the great info!
I was a surgeons assistant and ai also learned how to use all the sterilizing machines
More instruments!
Good morning. Please, I would want to learn more about the instruments. Thank you.
i’m getting my braces off soon 😄
heck yes!! How exciting!
r they off now
@@jeremyy9375 yeah
@@annaladjimi dude how do you feeel?
I love this channel. Suggestion- orthodontics for adults that still have baby teeth. This is something I have and there isn't much info out there.
Yeah! I'm 57 and have a canine that finally started growing in 2 years ago. Sadly however it's coming in at a 180 degree angle
I m not sure which my favorite is, but I know that the distal end cutter always gives me anxiety when it is used.. I know it's safe but for some reason I keep thinking my lip is going to get caught in it or the piece of extra wire is going to fly out! 😅
hi sir i am from india thank u so much sir this is most helpful sir
can you make a video on self aligning braces
My arch wire came lose and poking my cheeks, I pull it out because my orthodontist is still closed, This will prolonged my treatment period right?
Sir plzz video in details for wire sequence
I got my herbst appliance off today!
can you do a video about damon braces? i recently got braces a few days ago and i was disappointed that i didn’t get to get any color.
I want you to make a video on how to fix flared teeth after braces and other option if you have please 😢
i have a question about rubber bands, how long does it take on average to fix a class 2 bite if the patient wears his/her rubber bands consistently all throughout treatment?
Can u make a video about gingivectomy ?
Can you make a video of you putting them on?
I got a ligature wire yesterday
When fixing a deepbite with bite plate , does it improve the profile and chin ?
Love the Armenian flag on your customized tools haha! Glad I discovered your channel as I start my transition to a career in dentistry :)
I was going to get them off in February but my new orthodontist said next February ☹️
What are the different patterns like two colors on one bracket. And the color around the full bracket vs in an infinity shape
Could you make a video on bite pads?
What are the different tools for working with Damon Braces?
Hi doc ..can i consult my brace to u. I felt something wrong
WAIT DR. GREG I LIKE YOU’RE EYEBROWS AND HOW COME MY ORTHODONTIST USES TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF BRACKETS ON MY TEETH SHE TOLD ME I COULD ONLY GET COLOR ON MY TOP AND NOT MY BOTTOM SHE ALSO SAID MY BRACKETS ARE TOO SMALL AND THE COLOR WOULD KEEP POPPING OFF IF I GOT COLOR ON THE BOTTOM SO IN CONCLUSION. WHY DO I HAVE TWO DIFFERENT BRACKET SIZES ON MY TEETH ?! ARE MY TEETH REALLY THAT JACKED UP😑
I was wondering if I should get a distal end cutter, my wire pokes me at the back of my cheeks a week or two after each appointments. I don't wanna go see my doctor that often except when I do have appointments
What is the use of the colored bands on the instruments?
I have a question for you: I recently got my consultation for braces, and my orthodontist wants to pull my top molars to make more space for the teeth. She thinks that when we pull them, all of my teeth will adjust back into better positioning for braces. What would happen if my teeth didn’t move like they want my teeth to?
I have head gear can you talk about how head gear work.
The typodont interest me lol. Which one do you recommend?
Describe other orthodontic instruments too please.
6:35 Does that tool allows the rest of the wire to end up in our throat?
Hi Dr. Greg, it's not related to this video, but I had a question. I'll be getting my braces off next month and my orthodontist has suggested that I get a frenectomy. If I wear my retainers responsibly, can I put off getting the frenectomy until a later time? Or do I need to get it done immediately after getting my braces off? Thanks!
My niece has braces and sucks her thumb and wearing rubber bands will that affect her over bite more?
Who else thinks the pin cutter looks like a cuticle remover? lol. When I just got my braces I actually ordered a cuticle remover to use for my poking wires, I was never brave enough to put it in my mouth to cut the wires.
Hey doc, So I have an appointment tmrw but my father told me to Cancel it and make it Like after a month or so, do u think that’s alright?? I want to do it as well but like, Yknow I’m afraid something will happen to the braces, Please Answer As Soon as possible.
Which typodont do you recommend? Sorry for repeat
Is it safe to mew if you have a transpalatal arch installed if the arch is on the side that is closer to the front of the mouth? And do you think mewing in general would be detrimental to the jaw?
In pretty much all my ortho appts so far, they've cut the excess wire while it's in my mouth. And a fear of mine is swallowing the piece of metal as it flies off but now I know that won't ever happen lol thanks for the peace of mind
Could you do a video on impacted canines?
Oh man I had an impacted canine before, they had to laser the guns inorder to expose it
Smeggers I have 2, and I’ll probably have to get them exposed.. I’m really nervous about it! I don’t have a high pain tolerance and my orthodontist said it was expensive
@@laylamaui9919 it won't hurt at all. Except for the needle they inject into your gums to numb the pain which is a very weird feeling but nonetheless you shouldn't worry about it.
Smeggers thank you!!
WAIT DR. GREG MY BRACKETS ARE DIFFERENT THEY HAVE DOORS ON THEM SO I CAN OPEN THEM. LIKE YESTERDAY MY ORTHODONTIST FORGOT TO CLOSE 2 OF THEM SO I HAD TO CLOSE THEM MYSELF. WHY ARE MY BRACKETS DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS? Why is it that others must have color but I don’t it’s optional
Im studying to be an orthodontist. And the sad thing is I couldn't even afford my own braces hahaha
Hey so I have this question. So um I’ve had my braces for around 4 months and in my last appointment I got a power chain on my top teeth (my teeth are really gapped and keep in mind this was like 3 weeks ago), so I know that braces pain is normal but it’s supposed so go away after a week or so. So when I got my power chain the pain went away after a week but then after 2 weeks some mild pain returned, sometimes it’s just one specific tooth that hurts but most of the time is like the 4 front teeth, I wanted to know if this is normal and if I should tell my orthodontist...
@Peter Yeeter I have the same situation too. My top teeth and my bottom teeth had many gaps, and when my orthodontist put power chains on all my teeth, it started to hurt a lot. My power chains would sometimes hurt here and there, (especially my canine tooth) so I asked her if it was normal to have some specific teeth hurt and if it was normal for it to hurt even after a week or so. She said that it was normal for it to happen, but idk if this answered your question or not. You can ask your orthodontist next appointment and ask if it’s normal for that to happen, assuming you still have them on even though I answered 3 months late 😝. This is off topic, but I love your pfp since it’s Pepe 😋
WAIT DR. GREG I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION. WHY ARE MY BRACKETS PLACED HIGHER THAN OTHERS PEOPLE ASK ME ALL THE TIME WHY ARE YOUR BRACES SO HIGH UP OR WHY ARE YOUR BRACES CLOSE TO YOUR GUMS? WHEN I FIRST GOT THEM I NOTICED THEY WERE PLACED HIGH AND I WAS EMBARRASSED BECAUSE I THOUGHT MY ORTHODONTIST JACKED ME UP😑
I was going to be getting elastic bands this month but my orthodontist has shut down till further notice 😔
oh nooo - good news is is that slowly more offices are opening up across he country!
Why do my brackets so small than usual brackets?
I have a question! I have a back tooth out of place and my top teeth are kinda in do I need braces?
I would recommend seeing an orthodontist near you for a consultation! They can let you know!
The Matthieu
I have a question about my tooth 🥺
aww =] Good thing that dentists are starting to open up again!!
Wearing my braces for almost 2 years and im still not happy with the results. It makes me so frustrated.
change the dentist
Keeps saying your orthodontist uses this... I think what you mean is your CDA good sir.
hoping all can afford braces😭
I got my braces tightened but they don't hurt at all ...is this normal???
@and i oop nope it is not high cuz i would cry to a non bleeding simple cut ....it is just when i first got them 4months ago they kept hurting like hell for 45 days....and then it was my appointement to my ortho and he replaced the elastics with wire ties .....and i'm still with them and since then i don't feel any pain in my teeth...btw a got a larger wire this Time when still sticking with wire ties....i'm kinda anxious 'bout this ......any advice??
@and i oop i asked him and he Said it's ok ....and no i'm damn sure he tightened them alot cuz my spaces are closing like crazy and my teeth are already super straight.....thanks btw for your attention♥️
Mine don't hurt ever but it's only because I can tolerate pain lol. But good luck to your braces adventure! :D
@@smeggers thank u .....how long you're in braces?
i want to be as smart as you
Iam a dentist in gilgit
