I feel like I have bricks laying on my bottom teeth - 5th day of bottom brackets being in place. I am "not" adjusting well to them. The top ones were not this bad to adjust to.

:ThumbsDown:

Awhile after that it started to hurt again after she put in a thicker wire. But was ok after I took an Ibuprofen. OK today even went and ate a real sandwich and fries. But my bite is really messed up now. It will be 8 weeks this coming Tuesday since getting braces. What did I get myself into. :huh: But very glad of the results so far!
I noticed my ticker is not working. I'll have to look at that.
OH MY!! I felt the exact same way when they took out my first wire!!! my teeth were all so loose....

I'm almost 6 weeks in, and right now I feel like I have a bunch of horse teeth in my mouth.

My ortho is in the process of reversing a bicuspid extraction that my childhood ortho did, so as my top teeth move, spacing is expected (and will be fixed with bonding after the braces come off). But, holy cow! My teeth feel huge, and the spaces between them feel huge.

I'm not really liking it at all right now, but I know it's part of the process and will be worth it when all is said and done.

Bummed as I got the same elastics setup for the fourth month in a row but excited that I can finally get the TAD placed. Supposed that is a good thing.
