Back from Adjustment W/ ?'s

#1 Post by Skinny »

Well I made it though my 1st adjustment! The worst part of it was when they were putting the ligs back on. It just felt like alott of preasure but nothing bad. Last night I kept waiting for the pain to come on....I never got anything but a head acke. This Morning I woke and slowly opened my eyes and waited to feel the stress and pain of it all......Nope I feel fine!
So Im not sure when the pain will hit me but its almost been 24 hrs now and Im ok.
She put new wires and ligs on, My top wire is square? Is this normal? or is this a speacial wire? I have a normal one on bottom just thicker then the other one it replaced.
I cant belive how stright my teeth have gotten on the bottom in just a mounth. The Dr was very please also and everyone had to come and check it out. hehe that was cool.
I can feel more pull on my teeth then before my adjustment but to me that is a good feeling, No pain.
So I geuss I was worried for nothing huh? I will post pictures latter oday on my blogg for everyone to see. Take care

Hi Skinny,

Glad your adjustment went so well. From reading this site, I think the square wire is good! Hopefully someone more experienced will be along soon!

I am 24 hours into my spacers and one unhappy camper! I'm so glad you're not in any pain :-)

I'm also so happy that your teeth are moving- I can't wait until I notice some movement!
