Have you ever bought braces?
« on: 09. August 2006, 08:14:37 AM »
I just recently bought 5 sets of braces off eBay and was just wondering if anyone else has ever done this or even thought of doing it?

Every set I've ever seen on eBay has sold in no time at all. This makes me wonder how easy it would be to get in touch with an ortho and buy ex-braces from them to sell on eBay.

Note: They're a lot smaller than I imagined they'd be - they look bigger on peoples' teeth :P

You're not wrong about them looking bigger. My ortho showed me the brackets i would be getting, i was shocked when i first saw myself fully braced, they were so much bigger than i expected.

I wouldn't buy them off of eBay because I would have no use for them. And if they are used then eew! I wish I kept my braces after they were done. Oh well I will be getting braces again really soon. So  ;D

Agreed, complete waste of money. They're currently just sitting in a container in my cupboard ::)

Around 5 years ago when I REALLY wanted to have braces I bought two sets of brackets and wires on ebay for just some euros. But i never had a use for them really. A year ago I finaly went to an ortho and got braces "officially" ;)

I wouldn't personally buy braces because you wouldn't be able to put them on your teeth, I guess it would be a cool collectable though

I've bought a Fraekel appliance a couple years ago off ebay.
It don't fit me too well, but being made mainly of wires, it can be easily fitted... :P

Did you buy the Fraekel appliance from an orthodontist? Or was it just a random seller?
