Finally 2 weeks ago i started to embark on a journey towards braces. During jan went for consultation, 2 doc that i went ask me to extract 4 teeth...2 top & 2 bottom and was comparing the costs also. But i was thinking is too much for me to remove 4 coz my bottom r quite straight. Until i met this dentise, which advice me only to remove 1 which is the upper part. And which i only doing the upper portion rather then the whole.

Appointment all the way till April which is now. I went for my extract 1 week b4 the braces. At first i really tot remove of tooths can be super painful. But i was totally wrongly there was no feeling through out the process but can only feel the movement of them removing. Once is enough for me i wont wan to do it again. After which yet..bleeding but was not too bad, only try to eat with much much care. To make sure i wont eat n injure my wound, but i still can eat hard food. Just eat with one side. Felt weird with a large hole in yr mouth the first few days. Extraction is not the worse i realise. Now is the part is getting really very bad.

Was quite excited to put on my braces. On the first appointment, we went to glue the metal bracket on our every tooth. The worse n most painful part was actually to put n force in the seperator. With that stuck in between the back teeth. Totally cant eat any food except to swollo all the food. The second day onwards was bad...is not becoz of the pain that i suffer. Was due to that are so much food i cant eat, n i actually felt so hungry becoz i cant eat much which leads to it. Specially during work....i can spent my full 1 hr lunch break but i cant complete eating the whole meals. Which kind of quite depress =( somemore during the weekend morning i almost fainted lucky with dear ard to help me. Guess i must had been too hungry le...so is not so much abt the pain, is the eating part that i cant take hai...trouble things is have to brush almost every meal.

2 days later i am going to put on the wire n remove the sepeator..hoepfully it will get much better. Oh ya...the wax is kind of very helpful, actually place it on the metal n it actually dun cut so much n not that hurt anymore. I am going to put the wax for 24hrs if possible.
