I get what you’re saying about listening to your body, but I actually found it kind of tricky at first. Ice felt good for the swelling, but then I’d g...
This really resonates. I used to stress a lot about every little mark on my aligners—trying all sorts of “hacks” to keep them crystal clear. But, afte...
