Guest guest Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 I had my 2nd visit with the OD today since being unwired. He didn't go any easier on me this time than he did last time. My mouth is very sore, and I will probably do liquids again for a few days. The focus now is to bring my back teeth together. They don't touch at all right now, and that means rubber bands. I hate those things! If you change them every 6 hours like they want you to, your entire day is consumed with thoughts of whether or not you changed them on time. I am really trying to follow directions because I want these braces off ASAP!! I go back next week for new rubber bands. I have been eating a bit better. Still can't open too wide. I can fit my index and middle fingers in the opening, and that is it. That may seem like a lot, but it isn't even wide enough to bite into a cheeseburger. I have to break everything into tiny pieces. I guess it could be worse...I could still be wired shut. I see my OS next week for the 1st time in a month, and hopefully he will say that everything is still okay.
