I only experienced a little discomfort when it was supposedly meant to be quite painful as they cut through the muscle, which usually causes severe pain. No doubt braces are different, and the nerves in your teeth are also very sensitive. However, keep your mind off it, do something that requires your attention like a video game/jogging.
145 minutes (roughfully) and no pain, I just had some porridge...

Hmm, I hope it stays this way

I'll just listen to music as I usually do, and go on facebook & this.

One problem I do have is that if I find something funny and do a full smile (with teeth and everything) I find it difficult to get the brace back into my mouth lol. Which is probably why they only fitted one, with two there would be no room at all.
