Yesterday I had my braces tightened. Ahhhhhhhh.
I swear the person who tightened them, had to climb on my chest with a ratchet and hammer and just pound away on the wire to get it tight enough. Not really, but that is what it felt like. Really tight. Really freakin tight.
On top of the tightening of the wires, I now have smaller rubber bands. Really small. What is the big deal you might ask? Well these are used to pull my freakin jaw into proper alignment. Of course this pulls on not only my jaw, but the teeth too. And the fact that I have non latex bands, because I have a latex allergy, makes it even more special. The Latex ones at least stretch a bit. These really do not. I have had two of the pop in my mouth as I was speaking.
Forget about eating--can't really do it, as it hurts to damn much to chew. Hell it hurts to talk, because then I am moving my jaw. I am however hungry. So today I foresee lots of water, and hot tea, instead of solid food. The positive about that would be that I am actually losing the weight I want to lose. Sucks that I have to do it this way.
Oh well what can you do?
