[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I’d known how much having them taken off would hurt. DD was in so much pain. Glad I knew to book her for a teeth cleaning immediately after that though. Her teeth were filthy! [/quote] Thanks, any tips for dealing with the pain?[/quote] My DD found that chewing gum really helped, especially in the day or two after each adjustment. Something about the counter-pressure. Ortho said it was fine as long as it was sugarless, non-stick gum (most is, these days). [/quote] We’ve been told not to have gum with braces ..[/quote] Yeah, that’s like one of the Ten Commandments of braces - Thou Shalt Not Chew Gum.[/quote]
