Pain and movement
Posted: Wed Jun 21, 2006 2:34 am
Hey guy's....
Today is the start of week 3 for me... and I'm pretty much used to my brace now, but I have a few observations/questions to see if i'm getting the same sensations as you.
The main question i have is to do with the lack of pain! Not that i'm complaining!!!! But, I had always thought that pain or tightness of the brace meant that your teeth are moving. I have no pain, (well i did have a little pain the first week) and so I am starting to think 'are my teeth moving'?
I've been examining my teeth in the mirror and i think i can see movement, but i have promised myself that i wont take any photos to compare before/afters until my 1 month anniversary.
So, do you guys have any day-to-day discomfort? Or is it just normally after adjustments?
