24-05-2010` Retainers

Will be on Essix Retainers for 3 years. To clock 8 hours of wear at night.

I'm so paranoid of the possible rebounce of the lower that I'm trying to wear in the day as well. Though its not recommended cos my teeth will be reliant on the appliance and not able to achieve the equilibrium. I tend to snack frequent in the day so removing the retainers is sucha chore! Its high time to train myself to curb stuffing myself with food!

On 15% Opalescence Whitening as well. The anterior Cl V filling is showing marginal discolouration which causes much distress! Shall wait for 2 weeks when the whitening effects kicks in and the shade becomes stablized before commencing on re-doing the filling.

Retainers hurts. You would be surprise to know that the conventional metal doesn't hurt as badly, except for the inital phase.

And, I've put on 2kg. On the verge of pulling my hair when the scale reads 52. Good food and no workout. I deserve it.
