well from what my friends have told me...you don't want spacers!
motrin is better/stronger than tylenol and it works better for me. eat some soft or cold stuff...make sure you eat if your taking motrin or its not good for you.
try and have a good holiday! <3

aww i just got mine on too (not todaY) but when i first got them i had to get spacers, metal expander, then braces, metal expander out, just braces alone,and now i just have to get the top wire, and so thats where i am now Ha Ha. The first couple of days i went through the most horrible mouth pain ever and there wasnt much i could do about it. It wasnt only the pain i had to go through, it was also me thinking, oh God 3 more years im going to be 18 when i get them off and i was just depressed. But you can try taking some advil/tylenol (it works) to help the throbbing go away. And you can eat cream of chicken campbells soup (really good) and if your mouth is okay, eat toast with it too. Its what i had to do..for weeks haha. It sucked, but now its alot better. Its going to be hard the first couple of days, or weeks perhaps, but it will get alott better. Most people with braces go through the whole thing, and i made such a big deal the first time i got them every day people ask me "hows your mouth" but its so much better now, cuz i had people there for me, and remember im here for ya haha i know what youre goin through.
Hope you have a merry christmas with your braces!
