I am in a tad bit of pain this morning, I usually have that constant feeling of pressure that varies from tooth to tooth and day to day. Last week or so, it was my other front tooth that was super sensitive (the one that moved so quickly and lined up) and now it is the other one. My upper left side is feeling quite painful and tight...and this is new, just yesterday. My head hurts and I am wondering what is changing next!!!! My bite definitly seems more pronounced, not liking that too much but I knew it would. My orth said I would not have a perfect bite, but he hopes to get it back to where it was the day I started treatment with the use of elastics. He mentioned possible extraction, but worried that my teeth might slant inwards then...I hope elastics works wonders and hoping they start sooner than later. I know they are not fun, but my bite is so crazy, looks wierd..midline is all off and it's still hard to eat, I can not bite down on my back teeth and have not been able to since I got braces on. How hard are the elastics to deal with? will the tension be more on one side than the other to even it out? This is not a good day, and Monday to boot. Going to take some Advil

    Elastics can be annoying. One month, I had to double up elastics on one side and had a dull pain there all month. It can also be annoying to have to pull em in and out to eat all the time. The most annoying thing though is roomates or family finding little elastics here there and everywhere

    Good luck with the elastics. I havent had to have them and I am not sure if they will with these iBraces, but if I do I am sure my cats would love finding the elastics around! =)

    Keep your head up! Hope you are feeling better
