elastics..ouch
so i had my adjustment on tuesday the 2nd. i had to cancel it from the 24th because i was really sick. so they didnt change my wire but i did get elastics. the front four teeth are connected with the elastics, then from the canine to the 2nd last molar on both sides. this was the first time my teeth were actually really sore, but it still wasnt as bad as i expected. she offered me coloured elastics, but i said id rather just have the plain ones. i'm not really into the colours and stuff,i prefer the less noticable look. this is to start to close up these gaps faster. and boy have they started closing. they day i got them i could fit my finger in each gap, i woke up the next morning, and could no longer fit my finger at all. i already have litle gaps between my canine and the front teeth. so it shows me the little bit of pain those first days just meant lots of new movement. i go back november 12th for i think bottom elastics, she said she didnt want to do both at once cuz she wants me to be able to eat thanksgiving dinner lol.i took some pictures on wednesday, so i'll post those as soon as i get a chance.
