OMG the Orthodontist put springs going from my back teeth to my canines.. I think this is the worst, it hurts so back. He also tied two of my teeth together along with me still having to wear rubber bands. The dental assistant said i would hate her in the morning and oh boy, I see why she said that LOL! I have about six more months left in my braces treatment and i will be free! :-D
It's been five hours since I got my Trans Palatal Expander AND the Forsus spring. It's different! The intent of Forsus is to bring the right side of my mouth forward (and, I think, a bit to the left) to basically give me a good bite on my virtually-non-existent-bite-ridden right side of my mouth. I expect I'll adapt easily enough to the TPA (pic on my photo page of what one looks like) but right now, YUCK, it, along with Forsus is making me feel pretty gaggy. ...
