Let me know how your 2nd adjustment goes and how painfull !!

I keep checking mine everyday to see if i can notice any change lol
I think one is not so prominent and has turned slightly, but i also could be imagining it

Today is the first time that the brace has rubbed the inside of my mouth so it must be moving , caused a slight ulcur, so out with the bonjella and wax

Also I cannot put my teeth together anymore , so my bite has changed amazing in just over a week

awesome news about your bite!

well i had my adjustment yesterday. they left the bottom archwire on, and just changed the ligs, so that doesn't feel that painful. however they changed the top archwire and now my back teeth really hurt.

not really on their own but it is so hard to eat! it was okay when i first got braces on because it was my front teeth that hurt so i just ate food with the back of my teeth. now i can't really bite into food or chew it either!!

grrr.

anyway the ortho was really happy with the way my top teeth were straightening out, so yay!

my second adjustment is now set for the 13th of march. it pretty much is every four weeks. guess i'm doing well!

how are yours treating you?

Are the ligs the little rubber bands ?

I am fortunate my wires do not go all the way back, they stop two teeth before the back, so have been managing to chew on them.

Although I have to say the last few days they have improved and I am able to chew more good it doesn't effect wine drinking

Glad the first adjustment was ok , and it's encouraging that your ortho is pleased with your progress

Hi 4113n

No worries , I am now into my third week , and the pain has almost gone , so it's bareable
