I still have mild discomfort today, but halfway through the day I took the wax off, and my mouth feels pretty good. I'm starting to eat normal food again which I love. I'm even starting to talk a bit more normally. So things are looking up. Thats not to say I'm not looking forward to getting them off I'm getting the sonicare brush tomorrow. Does anyone have any opinions on this? Use it? In the little braces hygiene video the orthodontist showed me, it recommended it.

I just got my braces on 3 days ago. They still are scratching up my mouth. The day when I got them on was horrible. I couldn't talk, I couldn't eat, or anything. The second day was a bit better, except the braces had starting scratching my mouth. That night I went to a party and didn't wear any wax and it was a disaster. I talked a ton and really scratched up my mouth. The third day I got smart and put wax on, even though I had already developed sores in my mouth. Now I'm trying to heal the sores...
