It's day 11 and the overall pressure is pretty much gone. My teeth are still sore on my front teeth, so biting down hurts slightly. But I have learned how to chew better with the cement bite blocks in, so I can expand my palette to soft meats and pastas I have lost some weight, but I'm too afraid to go on the scale to prove that fact lol. I kind of miss the pain. It made me feel that the braces are doing work and not just sitting in my mouth doing nothing.

I will take some pictures at the 2 week mark in a couple days! Hopefully there is a lot of progress!

    Great that you're feeling so much better and finding ways to use the buildup to eat.

    It's wonderful to know your teeth are moving without any discomfort, this is when the modern archwire is really doing it's work. With the new archwires, the 'memory' of the wire will continue to work your teeth to get them in the perfect arch ... the shape the archwire was before it was put in your mouth. If your teeth are still not perfect, you can be certain it's still working!

    Good luck!

    Oh don't you worry about the pain, it will come back after each adjustment you have and you have a lot left haha. I know what you mean those. Those first few days after an adjustment you just hate life so much but you know those suckers are working. When your mouth adjusts, it's not so bad and you feel like no progress is being made anymore.
