Day 2

Or is it Day 1 still? I technically have not had these things on my teeth for a full 24 hours yet. Sleeping with them was fine. I sleep like a champ anyway, so my only concern was waking up with ripped up gums.

The worst problem I am coping with now is that my mouth feels dry when I talk and I make that gross dry-mouth sound. Also, my gums are, indeed, ripped up. I had a tooth filled on Tuesday and it's definitely more tender now than it was before.

Oh, and I can't chew. I can't chew at all. Any foods I put in my mouth need to be soft enough to either immediately swallow or mash against the roof of my mouth with my tongue. I'm not sure how long this will be a problem.

The verdict so far: tolerable but not pleasant.
