You need them 2 weeks!? I only need them for 1!. Spacers May 29, braces June 5!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I always hated mine!.!.!. after about a week they will feel completley normal and you wont even notice em!. Untill then, eat soft foods, like ice cream and soup!. always have advil handy, amd just try to relax!. sit in bed, read a good book, watch a movie!. Warning, if they are starting to get loose, dont feel them with your tounge okay!? You know that kind of sharp part at the front!? Mine were loose, and I got hit in the face with a volleyball, and then went to feel my spacer with my tounge!. then my tounge got stuck and I was like
"wtf!?!" so I went to the bathroom!.!.!. it had periced my tounge!. went right through, you could see it on the other side!.
Watch out for that, though I dont think its too common XDWww@Answer-Health@Com

have lots of ice cream!. i got spacers like a week and a half ago and yeah they are so annoying! mine popped out a couple of times, but I just put them back in!. Try massaging your mouth!.!.sounds kinda strange but it actually really does help!. good luck and eat lots of ice cream!Www@Answer-Health@Com
