Aligner 6 - Ouch!

When I put aligner six in on the 7th April, this is what my teeth looked like. 

Today, coming to the end of that two weeks, I can hardly open my mouth. I've got sores on the left and right cheek and a small ulcer :-( 


I'm told this is because I'm not washing my hands enough when taking my aligners in and out. 


So I've bought some Corsodyl mouthwash to use just once a day over the next few days to try and get rid of the bacteria and swelling. 


A lesson for all: 


WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE TAKING YOUR ALIGNERS OUT AND PUTTING THEM BACK IN. 


Lecture over. Tomorrow, officially halfway - Aligner 7 will be going in.
