More on elastics

So that's me with dark green ligatures for Christmas and with elastics. My adjustment was yesterday, the next one will be January 11.

For the second picture I tried to put my lips so that the elastic is visible from the side. These things make the teeth hurt. I had a hard time last night because the teeth tend to clench together with these things on the braces, I woke up at 5am. I hope I'll get used to them after the first couple of days.

I had braces as an adult (25 - 28) 3 years. 20 years later I still remember the pain of those elastics; and headgear! All of my teeth were banded so what a metal mouth. My teeth didn't really look bad, but the arches in the back teeth were. It is worth it. keep up the good work.
