he is meant to wear them ,top and bottom for at least 22 hrs a day
he's had since friday last week , we allowed him to leave off quite a bit over the weekend as it was his birthday etc.
so he's cracking on now with wearing them
drooling all over the place
can't speak but it's slowly getting clearer
pain is controllable
but my q is ..will he be able to close his jaws ??
he is meant to wear for a yr
i missed the appt ..dh went with him and he said he thinks he will eventually be able to close his jaws
I never knew it would be so hard for him
he said he'd rather have teeth out and train tracks but obviously this is best treatment for him
