I've been very lucky in that my braces expereince has been fabulous so far! But today, my lower 4 all feel really, really loose.. like they're about to fall out of my mouth! I know that they really aren't "loose", but it's a pretty unsettling feeling! I know it's common as well, but I don't like it! I hope it passes quickly!
Ew, I hate that feeling! I had the same problem last week. My bottom front teeth all felt loose. More annoying than the feeling itself was that I couldn't stop playing with them. It probably lasted 5 days or so and now they're snug again. Just remember that this means your teeth are moving and your braces are working! Hang in there!
