Members do not see this ad.

I just clicked on this ad on top of the dental forum. This has got to be the most insane thing to be sold, after "make it yourself" whitening trays. Like those weren't uncomfortable enough beign done by proffesionals.

"Now I have the confidence to smile again. IT?S ABOUT TIME!! I am so glad to finally have gap free teeth. I was thinking of getting braces on my teeth. The cost being prohibitive, I thought I?d try Teeth Effects. It?s wonderful! I couldn?t believe the results. I was very impressed. People everywhere noticed the difference. Great discovery and a product that really, really works! I?ve been telling my friends to try them. I'm giving them as a "gift" to friends ?just because? they gift so well. These are easy to use, have no unpleasant taste, and really make a dramatic difference! Thanks a million from a VERY satisfied customer!" - S.C.W.

Hehehe, so how much do they charge for 2mm rubberbands?

On the ad it said like 20 bucks. But I guess is cheaper to walk by an ortho's office and ask for a separator for ortho bands. 😀
God, had I known that I wouldn't have gone trough frenectomy and bracers for years...

Why stop at home ortho? I can't wait until I can go to the local Ace hardware and pick up a 169L burr that's been modified to fit my Stihl drill.

last paragraph of their faq page...

"Just as orthodontics glue braces on your teeth you can apply a small amount of super glue between the teeth. Once together apply a small amount of super glue to the tip of a needle then slid the needle between teeth (make sure teeth our not wet). This will keep your teeth from going back. The glue can be removed by taking a needle and scrapping it off at later time. (Cautions -This option is not suggested because of the danger.) "

wow.

wow.

Is this even legal?, to give such health related advice? 😕

It's normal to see patients use superglue to "glue" back their temps, if they happen to fall off between appointmetns. But this.....

I really like the "before and after" picture on the website, which is very clearly photoshopped.

 

[armorshell]

Wow, checked out the pictures page, these things are a nightmare.

 

[peridot12]

WOW! I knew a girl in elementary school who needed orthodontia after self-diagnosing by putting ortho bands on her front teeth because she thought it was cool.

That second grader missed out on early-age capitalism...as it turned out her Orthodontist was thrilled with the new patient!

"Enough, I am ready to Order ! "...

"My teeth were quite sore after the first few nights of using it, but very quickly the soreness went away and I started using them every day and night. I would only break to eat, or if my teeth started to get sore again. It was a bit frustrating at first because my teeth would start to move back every day and it seemed to be progressing very slowly. I was hoping it would be gone in a week, but I had patience. It took nearly 2 months but I’m incredibly happy with the results. And there’s virtually no gap on the other sides of my teeth! You don’t know how good it feels to actually be able to floss my middle teeth 😀."


somebody call the feds and CNN ...what a scam

 

[Dentalishus]

I have tons of rubberbands left over from wearing braces two years ago. I'm going to start selling them!!! I need to make some money to start dental school in August. Who knew I was sitting on gold. LOL

 

[Frederico Albin]

I feel bad for all the students going into orth programs. They are not going to find any work after that new discovery.

 

[beannaithe]

It'll be great to be around to have to fix all of the new diastemas that these things make. But the fact that people are able to sell ortho bands for such a purpose are kind of scary.

My grandma can photoshop better than that!

 

[starrynight]

so, right now it's only a matter of time for the "dental implants, no dentist required, try them at home" trial kit to be sold😀

There articles and resources is pretty amusing as well...

"Dentistry and Tooth Gap

Dentistry is the practical application of knowledge of dental science (the science of placement, arrangement, function of teeth) to human beings. A dentist is a professional practitioner of dentistry. A Dentist is skilled in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases, injuries, and malformations of the teeth, jaws, and mouth and who makes and inserts false teeth.


A Dentist is needed for correct most teeth conditions but there is a clear alternative to closing a tooth gap. So forget everything you’ve heard about closing gapped teeth. Because now there’s breakthrough technology that lets you closes your gap without bands, brackets or wires.

Teeth Gap has a product called Teeth Effects. By placing a Teeth Effect Band around the teeth with a gap will draw the teeth together; your gap will close right before your eyes. Your teeth will move, little by little, day by day, until your gap is closed. Teeth Effects are also removable so you can eat, drink, brush, and floss as usual.

Teeth Effect Bands are clear; most people won’t know you are straightening your teeth unless you tell them. After closing your gap you’ll also enjoy the added assurance of being able to express yourself with confidence—without being embarrassed or insecure about your teeth."
