Thought I'd just do a quick mid month update.

Well I've been wearing the elastics just at night and the one small gap that I did have has now closed. So all being well theres no reason that the de-bracing shouldn't go ahead on the 7th April, Yay I'm trying not to get my hopes up to much in case the ortho says for some reason they can't come off, but I really, really hope they do.

She was really impressed (again!) with how much my teeth have changed since the first time I saw her but mentioned that I seemed to be having some trouble reaching my...

I'm having problems,I put my new set of trays in on Monday night and my bottom ones are cutting my tongue to pieces, I've filed it down don't really know if its worked because my tongue is so painful anyway. I tried putting my last trays back in and that still hurt so until my tongue heals I think everything is going to hurt :-(
