On 13th Dec, I had some lovely elastic (code green) put
into my mouth. Some of my teeth, of the joined section are moved in a wrong way
and it’s to straighten them up. Well it is so small but powerful and it’s all look like a fractured hand
put inside a sling and that started hurting very much. And each morning when I
wake up my face was looking like a blood sucking creature. Mouth filled with
blood and blood clots which is about to ooze out my mouth at any time. i was in pain all day and night and I lost sleep too so I’ll do anything for a
bit comfort and finally I decided to remove it before sleeping could I do
that?? I just go ogled that and checked how other people are getting on. Yahoo
answers found many results but all of them asking to wear it nights since it really
works at bed time. But this pain almost killed me so I decided to remove it at
nights. Things were getting worse day by day. These elastics started scratching
my lips and which results paining it like hell.
First I removed it fully first just for Christmas days 24th
and 25th and after I forgot the right lower notch which just put
inside to hang that elastic on and i put on that on the back teeth which caused the wire bend a
little and started hitting my cheek then finally ended up not using that. I
know my doctor gonna fire me for this but I found that more preferable than
suffering this pain.
I had another appointment with my orthodontist today and he
advised me to wear one side only now and will proceed slowly as there is no
option left other than putting elastics to bring that teeth in line and also
the green elastics are the softest one which they can suggest. he said i need to wear that on every single night or so just to keep eye on it. Now I’m wearing that on right side and it’s
not started hurting yet.
