Braces nerves!!

[Tyrantblade]

I'm quickly using a lot of wax, my braces are so sharp and I was not expecting this they don't hurt its just my cheeks rubbing then swelling making it worse! Thinking of getting some of that special mouth wash.

I was very much the same, except i couldnt seem to get the wax on quite right, so i gave up on the idea and toughed it out, now the previously irritated parts of my mouth seem invincible.

Rubbing is a lot better today! Gave up on the wax because it's just annoying. I'm eating somewhat normally even though it hurts but at 170cm and 50kgs I can't afford not to. These build ups are annoying though, thankfully they're not on my molars but I can't bite down on anything, sometimes I bite my finger because I like the feeling D:

Thanks everyone for your advice as well

Congrats! I'm almost 3 weeks in and barely got a sore, the struggle is real!

I'm so jealous! Mine was so so bad I could have cried! I barely notice having braces now which is great! Except when I try and eat

Yeah I hate getting canker sores and I always get them HUGE! And eating is also a struggle I usually just cut everything into pieces and put the food to the back of my mouth! Usually cause my front teeth are sore ;-;
