well i got my archwires today and lets just say i finally found an excuse to take some of the percocets i had lying around... i def do not remember it being this painful the first time around. i dont' think we had the thermal wires 10 years ago. i was explaining to my boss how the wires are "stiffened" by your body heat but turn "limp" when cold, and he made some dirty joke about that...it didn't even cross my mind when my ortho was explaining this to me or when i was explaining this to my female coworker. and to make the pain worse i have huge canker sore in my mouth.
yesterday was the first day back at school and i'm pretty sure i'm the only law student with braces. my closer friends were like "hey you got braces" and accquantences just stared at my mouth. i'm hoping my profs will be kind when calling on me since i have braces. if all else fails i can start lisping and spitting alot.
oh again my ortho did not ask if i wanted colors and just started putting the silver/grey ligs on!!! next time i'm saying something as soon as i sit in the chair! i go on 10/23 to get more spaces (my 6's will get banded and i'll get some sort of chains or something to close up the gap fromt he second bicuspids) and then on 11/4 i'm getting more hardware and new wires.
