Hey poloaa, good to hear your journey's started!

I had the same teeth extracted and minimum pain. I did get some light bleeding on and off for a while though; I tried to be careful when brushing that area but sometimes I guess a stray bristle poked in and upset the healing socket. Nothing to be concerned about though and thankfully no nasty dry sockets. I still haven't got used to chewing food with the spaces where the teeth used to be though. Hopefully my extraction gaps will be closed up soon so I won't have to!

Good luck with your spacers and banding :thumbsup:

Thanks for the replies again, i don't get used to the "spaces", when i tried to eat something, i use my molar teeth to chew the food and i talk funny, lisp sound, anyone has the same problem like i do? How long to close the gaps? More than 6 months? i guess??
