adjustments

#1 Post by lgee24 »

I went for my first adjustment to get everything "tightened". And it was not at all what I thought it would be. The appt lasted about 5 minutes they working on closing a gap I have on my front upper teeth so she put what seems like a really tight band around the brackets and a band on the back hook I think. The front banding hurt and now my teeth are super sore.

I am excited and nervous to get this gap closed just wish it could be pain free.

I go back in a little over a month I'm hoping to see a great improvement I haven't seen much so far.

I agree Hugs for you I feel liek i dont see any change but maybe its because we see our teeth on a daily basis we don't notice it ourselves :) jsut give it time tho.
