hello hello! SO I know, I know, stil h avent gotten around to posting pix all tho I WILL! - I LOVE MY BRACES!! I am so happy with them! I also have fallen in love with the pressure feeling because it means somethings happening - I actually am disappointed bc I am getting so used to the pressure feeling that I dont feel it as often and I keep thinking they arent moving or something haha! I have a 1 year old daughter and sometimes she jumps around on me and knocks her head on my mouth and it HURTS so bad on my 2 front teeth - they are still very sensitive to touch or bite - It makes me nervous that she is knocking my teeth in the wrong direction or something eeeeeeek. Also, they did not bracket my babytooth, they put a spring across it to make a space for the adult tooth to be brought down - and the teeth on the left and right side of the baby tooth are pushed away from the baby tooth - I think my bby tooth feels loose - is this normal? When I use my tongue to push or pull the tooth or kind of sution it I can feel it click frontwards or backwards!! weird!

They do loosen up, thats normal. Thats how they move. I know mine just started doing it last week, or at least thats when I noticed it. I also have one of those springs because I have a tooth behind the rest that they can't put a bracket on since its too far back and too close to the other teeth so they have to pull the others apart first.

Gosh, what a great story. I too have a impacted tooth. Had surgery several weeks ago to pull the baby tooth and connect a chain to the permanent tooth. I now have a "monkey chain" to pull it down. I got the monkey chain on Friday and boy are my teeth irritated!!
