my TPA is welded onto my bands though so it's gonna be in there until my treatment is finished. i don't have one of the nice removable ones that other people have where the orthodontist can take it out half way through. i've had braces now for about 10 months (maybe?idk it feels like forever) and my treatment will take 2 years+ (soft weeping) because i left it so late ;w; everytime it hurts though i just remember spacers. the fixed braces themselves have NOTHING on those blue bands of death. oh my god even breathing hurt.
