6 days of torture left

#1 Post by Tyrantblade »

I swear the worst thing ive had to endure in my over 2 years of braces has been rubber bands; ive had them since day 1 and it always feel like the 1st 2 or 3 days of different elastics/rubber bands; or a new way to put them on is like getting attacked by the animal on the bag.

This time its a silly looking moose with really tall legs, a small body, big antlers, and a big head; which is eating flowers.

I have to put them on from my lower left canine, on top of my front teeth on top, down to my lower right canine; so i can barely open my mouth.

Plus they put some sort of wire tie on the bottom (looks like same material as PowerChains); so my bottom teeth (especially toward the middle) feel like the tightest they have ever been.

The good thing about having braces as a (21+ year old) adult is alcohol is really good at numbing pain.

Hopefully tomorrow is a lot less pain because i plan on drinking a lot less going forward anyways.
Lots of crimes here

1. The upper molars bite too far ahead of the lower molars

2. Missing teeth #s 9, 14, and, 29

3. Open bite

4. Upper midline left of center

5. Lower midline right of center

6. Upper and lower teeth not straight
