They told me to take 4 ibuprofen before my adjustments.. and I have been. But it doesn't even cut it. After my adjustment, though, I'm fine. A little sore, but fine.
The assistant said that my hygiene is good, but my bottoms had a little buildup. She said it was nothing abnormal, but that sometimes its hard to clean because the brackets are so close together and it's hard to see what gets in there. She gave me this nifty little brush to use, too. She said that everything else looked good, and that I was doing a good job cleaning my gum lines and such.
I can already tell this morning that my bite feels a little different on the right side.. and I'm assuming this is because of the reverse curve wire. One question though - I thought most people got molar buildups with this type of wire to prevent too much pressure on the teeth that were supposed to be leveling out? I also thought that leveling was one of the last steps in treatment.. I'm confused!
Help me!!
