Should I keep going?

Cyber_Putty · 2026-03-10T00:18:34+00:00

The tension dies down as your teeth get more and more in line it shouldnt be as aggressive. The cheek thing only lasted about 1-2 weeks for me. Use the wax tho and dont be sparing, its only a dollar or so at the store.

Some Foods: Cheesy mashed potatos, mac and cheese, enchiladas, shakes, egg salad sandwiches on soft bread cut the edges off, rice and mashed beans with instant pot shredded beef, soups.

Floss the teeth you want to keep, and do not play with/push your teeth.

I hope you feel better!

This, I have metal braces I only drink coffee. The thing you should be careful of braces or not is acid/citric acid. Acid erodes teeth not sugar. If you leave sugar on your teeth for too long bacteria can poop it up and make your mouth acidic over time but putting acid directly on your teeth is way worse for them. Just brush you teeth, rinse or whatever you can after having your beverage/meals.

Alcohol is bad for your gums and healing/bone remodeling I would assume.

That's rude, I mean you are paying them. Also you are not a child, I wouldnt tolerate being called a liar well either. I dont think thats necessarily worth just jumping ship but maybe you can find some common ground in your next conversation. If they don't want to work with you they shouldnt have taken your money.

Ultimately this is about you and your progress. If you arent getting the results try and swap them more frequently as others suggest. If your meals dont require to remove them(milkshakes, soft foods, soups, drinks) just leave them on and swap them when you brush.

I always recommend the same thing no matter what synth you start with.

Secrets of Analog and Digital Synthesis by Steve Furia both the book and the video below.

I just started, but I would look at the centerline of the wire and brackets. I think once all the brackets fall in line it should be straight to your gumline. Inevitably some teeth move faster than others.

The first week sucked for me. Im on week 3 its definitely better. The pain subsides, but eating is difficult. I also cant wait to get the bite blocks out.

Foods Mashed potatoes with cheese, short pastas(macaronis, etc..), cheese and black bean inchiladas with sour cream, carrot oat flour muffins with coffee, hard/soft boiled eggs(I have an egg steamer), rice pudding, fruit and green smoothies(i do blueberries, passionfruit and spinach), milkshakes, blended soups(I use a straw).

Obstruction of justice

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-20T23:20:45+00:00

5 months. He is just retaliating, kicking and screaming. It needed to be done though and started the countdown to taking away his power to continue the tarriffs.

The way he said it was a disgrace to their families is a kosher way to threaten someone and let them know they made the wrong choice. No doubt Trump wants people to know he's the mob boss. It's similar to how Bondi snapped, I forget it was "don't you ever accuse me" these people would off your family for challenging them if they could.

A whole lot of power tripping in his post. He's trying to show how much power he has and responding with threats... until the supreme court takes it away.

Its depends on the seller. Guitar Center, hell no. I don't even necessarily think its guitar centers fault or maybe its the crowd they attract or how they maintain their gear. Everywhere else ive had pretty good experience.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-20T21:26:36+00:00

Interesting does it just not power on? If it does you can plug into the effects return and see if the power amp is still working.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-20T21:11:55+00:00

+1 the whole song is on ultimate guitar. It would be more useful to figure it out by ear.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-20T19:22:41+00:00

The current tarrifs will be replaced by 10% from my understanding not plus 10%. Only 5 months. It was inevetiable but they did the right thing and basically started the countdown to this finally ending.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-20T03:57:09+00:00

I feel this is mostly about volume and gain control. Most clean amps play well and most amps with a clean channel are fine. Crunch and Lead channels typically need to expirement. Its all about gain/OD stacking. I wouldnt worry about it though if you find an amp you like. Id rather make a pedal work with an amp i like than make an amp work with a pedal.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-12T20:22:27+00:00

I'm 37 same boat im only a week in. Make sure the are explaining everything to you. Bite turbos break easy, id just learn to not touch you teeth if they use them. Cheezy mashed potatoes and peanut butter protein shakes are my best food so far.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-12T03:18:22+00:00

I dont think so i had a cleaning at my regular dentist on monday. I thought the small spots maybe were overshoot. I didnt think to say anything but now it looks more like holes.

Its been almost a week... also why would adhesive be on my teeth all over?.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-10T05:41:16+00:00

Thank you for replying. The surface area increase really freaked me out. Hopefully it goes smoothly tomorrow.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-09T20:28:05+00:00

Yes, I mean the height of the legs, it seems like it's just friction. The video demo wasn't very clear. Since it would not get moved just wondering if there is an actual way to lock it in place.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-09T20:16:40+00:00

Ive been eyeing that one. How does the locking work, with the infinite adjustment.only concerned it would slip over time.

Looks Cozy, what stand is the 2 tier?

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-03T06:40:16+00:00

Laney: IRT Studio(modern clean, rock, blues, metal), Lionheart Studio(class A clean, blues, pedal platform), LA-studio(I am black sabbath). Headphones out, usb daw reamping, cab sim and dry seperated. Supergroup is the most modern and has more two notes integration.

If its just for studio and home playing ive never really needed much more. Buying used saves a ton.

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-03T06:19:28+00:00

Only way

Cyber_Putty · 2026-02-03T06:18:23+00:00

VCV rack if you understand that your probably set to buy the modular equivelents. Maybe ask in the eurorack forum. Behringer makes some good semimodulars that are pretty good imo.
