Today I got my braces adjusted, which at this visit included the installation of chains. I don't exactly know how to describe chains other than to say that they're supposed to remove the spaces between my teeth that I was just getting used to having after years of my teeth being so tight together that I could barely floss them. My teeth are a bit tender, good thing I had melt-in-your-mouth pot roast for dinner. :)
Do you know what I said to the scheduling receptionist about my chains? "I just got my winter tires on my teeth!" She laughed, but I think it was out of courtesy rather than genuine amusement.

Hang in there Poppy... I used to hate that!
I thought it was funny....
I'm with you on the mouth soreness! Hope your happy pills helped that--I had to take two last night for my tooth. Bleh.
Oooo, the evil power chains - I feel your pain.
May I suggest mashed potatos for dinner, breakfast, lunch, oh and for dinner again!
Let me know how long the soreness lasts...I have my next adjustment on Dec. 2!
