And I was right. I AM going through more pain. Those of you who have had braces before probably know what its like. For those who dont, these molar bands are metal things that are put into your mouth, and in my case, since its just my back teeth that are needing straightening out, this metal sharp part is rubbing up against my cheeks, making them raw. It's unbearable. Those spacers were 10x better. Well, the dentist gave me this wax to put on the sharp part to make it less painful, and it DOES work, but once I have to eat, I have to take em out or I'll get food in the wax. It's annoying as fvck. Worst of all, I have to withstand this for about 3 weeks. *sigh* And I thought being away from school would be relaxing......
