Second day with braces

I survived the second day, basically I feel sore due to the tightening of my upper teeth, not much pain.

But nothing prepared me for what's coming last night:

FLOSSING

Let's just say, flossing teeth in braces in a WTFBBQ painful experience.

There are more steps when brushing, but I enjoy the process, it feels quite therapeutics. 

Had a dream where I repeat the steps of brushing my teeth over and over in my sleep and panicking that I won't have enough time in the morning to do all the steps. Didn't sleep well. 

Second thing I still haven't got used to when wearing braces:

BITING

I tried to eat a Bak Choy stalk during lunch, and there goes another WTFBBQ painful event. 

No more biting for a while, I'll stick to soft food for the time being.

 It's kind of embarrassing leaving the vegetable stalks on my plate during lunch, people might think I'm a picky eater.

Fortunately my dentist decided to do the top part at first, at least it gave me some time to get used to it.
