Metal Mouth Message Board

Well here's the problem, since I had the extractions my teeth have moved some and now my eye teeth on the right side hit each other when I chew. I would call the ortho but he wanted me to have my extractions at least two weeks before my first adjustment and it's been just six days since the extractions. I guess it's soup again tonight. *sigh*

I have the same problem with my right cuspids; very annoying. I'd gone in to clip my pokey wires last night, since I was there, I'd asked him about it. He's told me that my teeth are moving and it's just one of those annoying things about braces.
Have you tried yogurt or mash potatoes? They are the only reason I haven't starved to death yet.
If something bothers you, you should call your ortho. Braces probably costs so much because of all the customer service involved.
Good luck!

Oh, yes to the mashed potatoes and yogurt!

I have also successfully eaten: oatmeal, bananas, mandarin oranges, scrambled eggs, applesauce, baked apple, cottage cheese, pancakes, pork barbeque (chopped very small), soups, pasta and PB&J on soft bread.
