Well it hasn't even been a week since I got my braces put on and I'm miserable!! I used the dental ortho wax that they gave me at first and all was good, 'cept I looked like I had big blobs on my teeth and I was about to run out of the stuff. A friend of mine got her braces put on a few months ago and she suggested that I stop using the wax. She said the sooner I quit using it, the blisters will come & go and my mouth will get used to them sooner. So I took her advice...
Needless to say, I have 6 blisters in my mouth and they are very painful!! I have barely been able to eat due to the rubbing & cutting. Being in pain really takes a lot out of ya. I've been trying to stay on my exercise routine & push myself to keep going, but it's sooo hard when all I wanna do is lay around, take pain meds and sleep!!
Tomorrow is a new day and I'm hoping the tenderness will have eased with the rise of the sun. I'm not a baby but this has been unbearable!!
