Day 33 Tray 3

Nov 22nd '08 - Yesterday's visit - Had the attachments put on my teeth and not too sure if it was shaving or just polishing my teeth. ( I think polishing ) I need to ask next time I see him. No real pain, just some discomfort when the trays were applied over the top. He had lots of trouble getting them over the attachments and oh boy did I have trouble getting them off. In the end resorted to using a crochet hook to get under them for them to release. I thought for sure I would lose an attachment (button) but no .. they remained stuck in place. Phewww.
How do I feel? Well the buttons are very feelable and rough in my mouth (without the guard on ).. and its taken all of the last 24 hrs to get used to this feeling of them against my lips. My friends say that they aren't too noticeable but to me I think they are. They are bigger than I had imagined but I realize something has to apply pressure to get movement.
I am hoping this stage goes quickly .. never wished my life away before .. but .. a first for everything!! I don't go back for 7 weeks now and have the trays up to number 6.
