So I finally had my braces and wires placed last Thursday morning. Nothing too exciting except I had a bracket pop off a couple hours after it was on. Had it fixed and it's stayed put. Today seems to be the worse day with pain so far. Actually the pain is more spread out today. It seemed really fixed on an upper molar for most of the weekend. It's a sensitive tooth to start with as it has an abfraction. That one seems to be settling down and now it's just the rest of the mouth. At least I know something is going on.
