Seems like I am the only one experiencing soreness after a few weeks. I guess I am lucky?

My soreness is off an on but I don't really have any constant pain. Just some teeth are harder to chew on than others. And it changes on a daily basis. A tooth that I couldn't use yesterday now feels fine while others don't want to be touched at all.

I can't say I've had a day where it was just impossible to chew with any teeth except towards the beginning.

I could not have said it any better. I am almost at my year mark and the above, still occurs from time to time.

That just braced feeling is the worst. I don't wish that on my worst enemy. I was pretty hateful I couldn't eat.
