Looking back on 10 years post treatment what I wish I had done differently was stretch my mouth as wide as possible many times throughout the day. My biggest pain in the post years is not being able to open my mouth far enough to take a bite of apple, or eat most sandwiches or hamburgers. Tough on my dentist too to get into my mouth to check those teeth. Much going on for you just getting through treatment but if you can--open that mouth wide!!! Because when you finally can eat, you'll want too!
Best of luck - Kris
