So i went in at 9am.ortho assistant did the molds along with several pictures and exrays.i got metal spacers. 6 of them.so far after 6 hrs no pain.eating noodles now
good for you! i was supposed to get my spacers tonight too! i pushed it to next tuesday since no matter what i was always get braced on the 28th. keep us updated on how eating goes!
nearly 24 hours since i had them put in and still no pain.i looked in mirror and a space is forming already.i have the metal spacers or springs as the ortho called them.my cheek is rubbing against a piece of it.I wonder if a piece of wax would fix that? I just ate toast with no problem anyway..the ortho put the springs in but assistants did everything else!
