No pain no gain?

The ortho wasn't joking when he said the right side of my mouth was going to "be a bit sore". He has never said that to me before so I was forewarned. Again, (and luckily) it is not a constant soreness. It's very much like the last adjustment where the pain was when I try to bite down / into something hard. Both top and bottom on the right side are really letting me know they are working overtime. I just keep reminding myself that I'm ahead of schedule and it will be worth it. No, I am not taking any kind of pain killers.

Of course, I don't need any excuse for comfort food.

    I feel your pain. This was my first adjustment with no pain but he just put my same wires back in so my mouth isn't trying to get to used to new wires.

    Hope it gets better fast.

    Jenn - the discomfort is not nearly as bad as it was at the last adjustment. Whew! Almost completely normal right now.
