I'll have them off in a month, and the only reason I haven't already taken them off is because I too asked for them and because they actually work. But, who invented this implement of torture? What depraved mind? I feel for my kids who will start with the orthodontist in a few months. I hope you recover quickly and get used to them.Yamilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08769312615756253197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-693050953762677969.post-77001112047009940902010-09-19T10:24:18.842-05:002010-09-19T10:24:18.842-05:00You are a bit of a masochist, you know.

That sounds like some guy in a shack with teeth coming sideways out of his cheek as I reread this, but I swear he looks normal! Anyway, they said his teeth would eventually all fall out, and his dad's basically did, so he was pretty nervous about it. And by the time the 5th dentist concurred, we decided to fix it, but he's been in all kinds of pain with the bite adjusting part of it.Robin Lemkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12254896327174187893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-693050953762677969.post-70703942716418046392010-09-18T18:33:23.696-05:002010-09-18T18:33:23.696-05:00Too bad we don't live closer together.

It was miserable, and my husband just got them on because the 5th dentist told him that if he didn't all his teeth would fall out by the time he turned 60. So... he's in pain too, lots of it.

Take Tylenol or ibuprofen--that seems to help. Adults have a harder time than kids, which stinks. But keep the end goal in mind. The time will fly, and at the end of this, you'll be so happy you did it.<br /><br />And I love the plotting tips! I do the same thing--emotional hi or low or cliffhanger at the end of each chapter. I think it helps encourage the reader to keep going to the next chapter. Thanks for sharing the tips!Carolina M.
