Hi, I am new to the group... and just got braces. I am not quite 50
years old and feel rather silly with the whole metal mouth look... or
my "grill" as my kids / grandkids call it. My granddaughter said "she
really DOES have a grill!" I've been "wired" as it were for 4 days.
My teeth are not QUITE as sore, but I still cannot bite down or
anything (not even a grape for Pete's sake!). If you have any pearls
of wisdom to share... I'm all ears!
Linda
