I got braces put on yesterday, which would be bad enough if I didn’t also have to get a non removable plate stuck to my upper back teeth to widen my jaw, which means I can’t talk, eat, or swallow (since it blocks the roof of my mouth from my tongue) and am in great pain constantly.
That sucks, but it will be so much better when you’re done. You’ll probably never know how much it’s helped you. Remember to be thankful for that when you’re middle aged and not in pain.
I hope it’s over for ya quick! Till then, courage.
