Spacers hell

[onefastchick]

I know that there are horror stories on here about spacers but its not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I am on day two of having my spacers and I have taken 2 tylenol today for the discomfort but its not painful. I am able to eat, I am eating soft foods to avoid worsening the discomfort. I did have one spacer come out the same day they were put in, I dont think it was in right so I have to go back tomorrow and have that one put back in , maybe I will have more pain then but for now its tolerable. If this is honestly the worst part of braces I think I will be ok. My "b-day" is next Tuesday the 15th so wish me luck.

I got my spacers put on yesterday and apart from a little pain this morning, they've been an absolute breeze. Nowhere near as bad as I was expecting from the stories on here! I haven't had to go near the painkillers at all and it's fun to clench my teeth together 'cause the spacers make them feel bouncy lol.

Lucky you Meemoo....I can't say the same....I had my spacers on while i have braces on at the front...it is really bad and lasted the entire week it was there Hang in there, you'd be scott free from it soon (if not already).
