- [Shawn] You still wanna go forward with this?
- [Tyler] Yeah.
- [Shawn] Yeah, err.
You're gonna be just fine man.
(uptempo music)
Hello everybody, it is Shawn and ...
- Me, Tyler.
- Okay, it's me and me together here today.
We are on our way, where we going bud?
- To the orthodontist.
- Oh, today is the day.
- I get braces! And they're gonna be stars.
- Show 'em your pearly whites right now.
That's the last time you're gonna see
those plain white teeth for probably about
a year and a half to two years according to the dentist.
We are on our way right now.
I just picked him up from school.
- I got a sandwich.
- Yeah, packed him a quick lunch real quick,
because, unfortunately, he's missing lunch
in order to do this, yeah.
- What do you call a witch that lives on the sand?
A sandwich.
- Oh, that's good, that's a good one man.
- Dad jokes.
Mom is in meetings today, so she couldn't make it.
She was kind of bummed, she wanted to be there.
So, I gotta take over Dad duties here.
- Dad duties.
- Dad duties, he said duty. (laughs)
So, how you feel?
- Uh, I feel nervous.
It's the first time I'm getting braces.
- [Shawn] And your only time hopefully, right?
- Yeah, hopefully.
Hopefully I don't lose my retainer.
- [Shawn] 'Cause we have harsh punishments
for kids who lose their retainers.
- Please no.
- [Shawn] Okay.
- Okay, so first thing we're going to do
is gonna brush your teeth okay?
- [Shawn] Are you nervous?
- Yes.
- [Shawn] Yes? Don't worry.
- [Dental Assistant] You have nothing nervous to be.
- [Shawn] Hey, it only hurts a lot.
Nothing, not a big deal.
- Not helping Dad.
(techno music)
- [Shawn] Getting to the point of no return man,
you still wanna go forward with this?
- [Tyler] Yeah.
- [Shawn] Yeah, err.
- [Tyler] I can't talk.
(laughing)
- [Shawn] You're gonna be just fine man.
- [Tyler] (laughs) I can't say it...
(techno music)
- [Shawn] So what does that do?
Does that like dry the--
- [Dentist] The glue.
- [Shawn] The glue?
- [Dentist] That's correct.
This is kind of like soft and doughy right now.
(instrument beeps)
Now it's hard as a rock.
- [Shawn] Wow.
(snappy music)
So how you feel bud?
- It feels weird.
- [Shawn] Does it feel weird?
- Yes.
- [Shawn] Pretty soon it'll be normal.
You won't even notice the difference.
- [Dental Assistant] Be like a sock going on a foot.
You won't even know it's there.
You can go ahead and rinse out behind you.
- I feel dizzy for some reason. (laughs)
- [Shawn] Let me get a big smile there.
Yeah, look at that bud, sweet.
- Can I see a mirror?
- [Dental Assistant] Absolutely.
- [Shawn] There's one right there next to the sink.
Or you got that one right there too.
- (laughs) It feels so weird, it feels like a bunch of
food that's like stuck in my teeth and I can't get it off.
- [Shawn] It's like glued on.
- Augh!
- [Shawn] Little bits of sandwich
stuck to your teeth forever.
- Ah, dang it. (laughs)
It's like hard to put my lip over it.
I'm gonna have to do this.
- [Shawn] Did you pick out what colors you want?
- [Dental Assistant] We have as many colors
as we have braces.
- I want yellow.
- [Dental Assistant] Okay, yellow?
- [Shawn] You going with the yellow?
- Yeah, 'cause I got stars you know, stars are yellow.
- [Dental Assistant] That's a good idea.
Every time you come in you can pick out a different color,
same color, we'll change them every time.
- [Shawn] Grand finale right here, right?
- [Dental Assistant] It is.
- [Shawn] Grand finale.
(smooth music)
That's it huh?
- [Dental Assistant] That is it.
- [Shawn] Alright, let's take a look.
Let's take a look with the rubber bands on.
- Can I see?
- [Shawn] Can you see it?
- Uh huh. (laughs)
I didn't even notice I have stars on.
- [Shawn] No, you gotta really look to see em.
It's not that big a deal.
- And you thought people were gonna be like haha. (laughs)
- [Shawn] Alright, we got some goodies.
- [Dental Assistant] Yep, got some goodies for you.
- I feel like my first meal is gonna be super hard to eat.
'Cause it's just hard to talk right now. (laughs)
- [Dental Assistant] You'll also have to stick
to something soft for the next few days.
Each day does get better.
- Ice cream.
- Right now you're not used to it.
You might be hitting on them a little bit.
That'll all adjust out.
Okay?
Absolutely no ice, okay?
Pizza crust, you can have pizza crust.
It's just that you just tear it if it's a little too hard.
Doritos, tacos, Tostitos, Cheetos, just not a big handful,
if it's a really heavy tortilla chips you wanna
break 'em down smaller.
Caramel candy is, I put under like Starburst, Skittles,
Tootsie Rolls, Milk Duds, things like that.
Hard rolls, you can have them, just make sure you tear 'em
if they're too hard.
- What are hard rolls?
- Like hard sourdough, that's you know...
Bones, take the meat off the bones,
instead of digging on the bone.
Suckers, okay, you a big nut eater?
If you do have peanuts, just one at a time.
Not a handful.
Pens and pencils, they have no vitamins, okay?
Popcorn, you a big popcorn eater?
- When I watch movies.
- Okay, treat yourself, you don't have any bands,
so you're fine.
Just not all the time.
Carrots, any hard vegetables,
break 'em down to smaller pieces.
And soda, you a big soda drinker?
- When we go to restaurants.
- Exactly, that's when we say exception to the rules.
This is a piece of paper it says emergency care.
You wanna read all that so in case this happens at home,
you can refer back oh yeah, this is what I'm supposed to do.
- My mouth feels so weird.
- This is a water flosser.
As you can see this has a Sonicare in it,
this is just something if you--
- We have one of those.
- You have one, awesome.
What I want you to do is I want you to take
a regular toothbrush, even if you have the electric one,
and do a water brush first.
Make sure all the food is off the teeth,
then you can go back and put your toothpaste.
I think toothpaste covers up the food
that gets stuck in the teeth.
You've got a travel toothbrush in there for you.
Travel toothpaste, floss, if you have the water flosser
that can be your flossing, but if not,
you can't thread and floss because of the wire.
You have to thread it underneath and then floss it.
Would you like me to show you?
- Yes.
I kind of get what you mean.
- Here, it's okay, you can sit down right there.
Like normal.
Okay, with the water flosser, that kind of takes the place,
but they do ask that you still floss
at least two times a week normal, okay?
Last but not least, I'm gonna show you how to use wax.
Wax is used if something is poking you.
But I wouldn't go home and put wax on it right now
because there's no sore.
You're not gonna put a band-aid right here
where there's no sore, you wait for a sore to get there,
then you put the wax on.
- Okay.
- Take a little piece of wax.
You roll it up in a little ball.
- And then you just put it on back?
- [Dental Assistant] And then, yeah.
And say this is the brace that's bugging ya,
you just kind of...
- [Tyler] Put it on the brace?
- [Dental Assistant] Exactly.
So that it makes it soft.
Okay?
- Do I have to take it off, or?
- [Dental Assistant] Nope, it just kind of wears off.
You don't need the wax, don't use it.
- [Shawn] I don't think Kayla ever used wax.
- I think she did.
- [Shawn] Do you?
Like once or twice, yeah.
- She had like 20 of 'em but she only used one.
- [Dental Assistant] Go for it, look we got crazy glasses...
- [Shawn] Alright.
He's wearing pink for breast cancer awareness.
- [Dental Assistant] And what we're gonna do is..
- [Shawn] You kind of look like Elton John man.
- They're a little big.
- [Shawn] They're a little big? (laughs)
Don't worry, you'll grow into 'em.
(lighthearted music)
- Alright, so Tyler's done,
look at that mouth full of metal right there
it is beautiful.
- Brace face.
- He's a brace face and he owns it.
That's my boy.
He's gotta go back to school.
So I'm gonna drop him off and then we'll be right back
so that we can get Kayla and Mom's reaction.
'Cause they haven't seen it yet.
Anyways, don't go nowhere, we'll be right back.
- Yeah.
- We are on our way to pick up the kids,
and I am so excited, I wanna see what Tyler's
braces look like.
You said they look cool?
- They look cool, yeah.
- You guys, what does it look like?
You've seen it before I have.
Okay, we're pulling into the pickup.
I wonder if I'll recognize him.
- No, he looks completely different now,
you have to way to even know who.
- I guess if he smiles I won't recognize him.
- Hi mom.
- [Mom] Hello.
- Hello.
- [Mom] Hi.
- I'm not showing Mom my teeth yet.
- [Mom] I wanna see 'em.
- No. (laughs)
- [Mom] Why?
Oh my gosh!
- I got stars.
- [Mom] Wow, I can barely tell actually.
How do they feel?
- They're a little sore.
I got a little lisp.
- [Mom] A little lithp?
- [Shawn] You gotta a lithp from the brathes?
- Yep.
- [Mom] Were you able to eat or have you eaten anything?
- I ate a sandwich before.
- [Mom] I seriously can't even hardly tell.
Can you guys tell?
- [Shawn] That he has braces?
- You guys out there, can you even tell?
I barely can tell.
- That I have braces on?
- [Mom] Yeah.
- 'Sup?
- [Mom] Your teeth already look straighter.
(all laughing)
- It's cause they're distracting.
- [Mom] Yeah, in one month I bet your front teeth
'll be straight.
- Or together.
Oh and the doctor said that I have a little,
my two front teeth on the inside,
it goes like that.
So, when my two front teeth close
there will be like a little gap in the middle.
So they have to sand my teeth.
- [Kayla] Ew.
- They're gonna use some tooth sand paper
or something like that to make 'em straight
because they kind of go, I dunno,
I could draw you a picture I guess.
- Like straight...
- [Mom] On the inside, yeah, like curve in a little bit?
I thought yours did that too.
- Yeah, they probably do.
- [Mom] Kayla's teeth are perfectly straight now.
- No they're not, that's why she needed braces.
- [Mom] No, now.
- [Shawn] Now they are.
- Now.
- [Kayla] I just have to whiten 'em now.
- Yeah.
- [Mom] So what do you think of Tyler's braces?
- I think they'd be better if they were unicorns.
- [Mom] If they were what?
- Unicorns.
- [Shawn] Instead of stars?
- [Mom] You heard about that?
That would have been crazy.
I can't believe they make brackets like that.
- It's only the six right here, it's not all of 'em.
It's only just the ones that you, when you smile.
- [Mom] Oh, okay, that makes sense.
It's pretty cool man.
- Yeah.
- [Mom] Yeah.
And you look handsome.
- That's always.
- Wait 'till they're done.
He's gonna be a little stud boy.
- [Mom] Oh my.
- A stud boy.
I'm gonna be a stud boy.
- [Mom] Watch out girls, here comes Tyler.
Well you guys, it seems like it's been a pretty full day.
I don't know if I can get us all in there.
- Yay, I'm right here.
- You guys lean in, say goodbye.
- Kayla's not giving me gum.
- Glad you guys were able to watch Tyler get his braces on.
That was probably really interesting, I'll see it after
we're done videoing.
Which means, you'll see it before me.
We're just gonna say goodbye
and then we'll see you guys tomorrow.
- Yeah, so hope you guys enjoyed this video.
Question of the day is do you have braces?
- [Mom] Do you have braces or have you had braces
or do you need braces?
- So--
- Comment down below.
- Down below, until next time.
- Bye.
- We just wanna give a special thanks to Dr. Wynn.
Thank you for doing such a good job,
you got a professional staff there.
- I got some grill.
- Look at that grill right there.
Everybody that works in that office are so friendly
and so nice, they made it so easy.
- Even the patients were nice.
- I know, even the patients were nice huh?
It was just a good place to go.
You should look him up, he's in Monarch Beach.
