Just had my first adjustment, and a week later, feeling very little, if any, increased pressure on the upper row. When had uppers fitted for first time, was sensitive for a week, and then for next 6 weeks before i had 1st adjustment, no pressure at all, although 2 of the teeth felt as though they had a bit of "give" in them when pushed. Now archwire on top row's been tightened, and they were sensitive to start, but 3/4 days later i couldn't feel anything, and have 5 weeks to go until next adjustment. Is this normal? Do adjustments involve a few days of sensitivity and then nothing? No visible movement either. Are the teeth are still moving? I guess they can't be under pressure and ultra-sensitive all the time, or we wouldn't be able to eat and concentrate, but just wondering if they're moving as quicking as they could?
Lower row, which had linguals fitted for first time is still sensitive a week later, unlike top row, but presumably this will fade in the next 24 hours, and then have to wait 5 weeks until next adjustment.
Is this how other people's treatments have gone? Is mine going as quickly as it could?
gracias...
