Just to say I had my spacers put in on 21.3.07 (2 days ago) and they aren't as bad as they sound, well not for me anyway, I'm sure some people might disagree!!
Spacers went in - Yey No Pain
Went straight to work after - No pain for the rest of the day.
Woke up the next day - ouch, teeth were aching a bit and eating was difficult.
This evening - Starting to feel better. No painkillers were needed

So, all in all, I thought that spacers were gonna be horrid and painful but to be honest, the pain after my tooth extraction was worse.
I might just be lucky, but thought I'd post this incase anyone is nervous about having spacers.
